Brilliant. Let's hope Nottingham don't get renewed as my tenants have paid a fortune in rent increases to pay for Nottingham Council Selective Licensing and they've received nothing in return, not one inspection.

Brilliant words Michael, U say it clearly. There was no major homeless problems till the Council & Govt & Shelter started to interfere. They wanted Pet deposits banning, now no one with pets can get houses. Section 24, less houses. Universal Credit, no Landlords now take Benefit tenants. Shelter wanted Licensing, Now all Landlords in Licensing areas only take the most perfect tenants. I know this as I'm the biggest Benefit Landlord in Nottingham & my tenants can't leave me any more, can't get anywhere & I wish to sell most of mine, but looks like I'm stuck with 'em for life.

What I see in Councils since Selective Licensing with Nottingham Council, is they bring new people in who haven't got a clue about renting houses & try to enforce things as the tenants were all perfect human beings in a new build house. And the Landlord should be young & eager & go on every course possible. And it's Landlords fault if tenant don't cut her lawn. We still waiting in Nottingham now for an answer off the Council: Where is their Mental Health policy for Landlords? They've made a lot of us ill with their impossible demands in a short space of time. I had to upload my passport 36 times for 36 houses. Why? Why can't they get my details then job done? And Possession Friend says it perfectly: Landlord Licensing as a prime example, 99% of Landlords paying to administer a scheme aimed at the 1% who don't register.

A lot of Landlords would go bust at 17%+ VAT

Gees, another thing they've finally realised they got wrong. Which we told em 4 years ago. All my existing current tenants who I've watched being born in the UK failed the Govt online Rent to rent. They wasn't entitled to a house in the UK. I give up. So they now want us to read this 43 pages coupled with the 2304 pages Licensing have sent me. No Landlord should rent a house out on his/herself now, should use a Letting Agent.

U lot say everything I was gonna say. These people at the top have no clue with reality. These deposits if no damage they was getting back. Along side all the other attacks on landlords (which impacts on tenants), this measure has just resulted in increased rents which tenant don't get back. All vote winning, we helping u tenants cry the Govt. When we know, more landlords now sold, supply and demand, rents shooting up for remaining landlords.

I can't defend the Landlord in this one, but yes this could & may have been found without Licensing.
