I speak to quite a few landlords who have either managed their own tenancy and a problem has arisen. There might be a variery of reasons for this
- The tenant is not paying rent
- They have damaged the property
- Condensation issues
- Unreasonable levels of repairs and maintenance
And many other reasons!
Rather than just going it alone or speaking to a solicitor we may be able to help. Whilst not solicitors, we deal with landlord and tenant law on a daily basis and have a firm understanding of what works practically and is reasonable.
It might be that you are at fault or have not done something correctly. I am happy to work with landlords, as long as you are keen to be legally compliant and reasonable to the tenants going forward, There are over 150 laws and regulations that affect landlords so I do understand it can be easy to get caught out.
It could be that the case has to go to court or alternatively other ways can be found. We will give you our guidance and thoughts on how to proceed and can introduce you to good solicitors if that becomes appropriate.
It might be best in cases like this to make an appointment with me, Jeremy Wasden and I would be happy to talk this over at the office, your home or at the property. I don’t make a charge for this advice service.
