It's an expensive option, and very, very expensive when the Heat Pump needs repair. I won't be putting them in my Properties, the Government are crazy if they think Landlords will embrace this idea.

From: Robert Shread 13 July 2022 11:19 AM

In my experience Gays look after the Properties very well, so why would I worry about their sexual orientation.

From: Robert Shread 30 June 2022 10:02 AM

The interfering Government Departments have a lot to answer for. All this red tape rubbish is costing Landlords and it has to be passed on.

I am an Animal lover, but from my experience most Tenants treat their Dogs dreadfully. I have reported Tenants on 2 occasions for locking Dogs in cages all Day whilst they were at work. So the Government are just encouraging Animal cruelty. Tenants and the stupid Government have to realise and accept a rented Property belongs to someone else and should respect their letting conditions.

From: Robert Shread 15 June 2022 12:33 PM

Yes, but will the Government listen?, no! They will pander to the silly Socialist minded organisations that blindly condemn all Landlords. I have not increased rents for 3 Years, because I know things are tough for my Tenants, but with all this new regulation I will be forced to charge more. So well done Government, yet another Home goal.

From: Robert Shread 13 June 2022 09:17 AM

Waste of time talking to these People, they are all warm hearted soft headed Socialists, as long as the Money is not coming out of their pocket.

From: Robert Shread 10 June 2022 08:55 AM

Another stupid interference by the Government, how easy it must be for these Civil Servants to sit at Home and think up these idea’s.

From: Robert Shread 09 June 2022 09:34 AM

Simple! Good Landlords look after good Tenants.

From: Robert Shread 25 May 2022 10:32 AM

How about a freeze on interest rates, government interference, and stupid idea’s by Generation rent and the other crack pot organizations,.

From: Robert Shread 22 May 2022 08:56 AM

We’ll it’s a pretty sensible bill, but in reality, Landlords only evict bad Tenants anyway.

From: Robert Shread 10 May 2022 12:50 PM

One of my Tenants has just left the Property voluntarily. Which was a big relief as the House was filthy, how anyone can live in such filth amazes me. She was supposed to clean the House, Oven and tidy the Garden. But when I went to do the Inventory check out she had done nothing. I told her to get professional cleaners in to do the work and she said she would. However when I went back 5 Days later nothing had been done. Now she thinks I should not claim on the Deposit, she also failed to pay her final rent. This is the sort of Trashey People Landlords have to put up with and still we are painted as the Bad Guys.

From: Robert Shread 28 April 2022 10:27 AM

These People are so dumb, why don’t they do something useful and they are capable of, like litter picking.

From: Robert Shread 07 April 2022 09:43 AM

There should be jail sentences as well as paying costs and damages. Bunch of Morons, I would like to know how many of them actually contribute anything to Society, Taxes etc, probably very few.

From: Robert Shread 06 April 2022 13:36 PM

What a Dime Bar, why doesn't she give up some of her Salary and give it to a Tenant's Charity. Obviously couldn't think of anything useful to say.

From: Robert Shread 04 April 2022 10:19 AM

Yet another Hare brained scheme that will cause a lot of extra work for Landlords. Also I thought the Government was committed to improving Property standards for Tenants, so how is a Landlord going to do improvements, when the profit has gone in Tax. The Government and all it's departments are totally incompetent, they spend money on stupid schemes that benefit no one, but expect Landlords to adopt this ridiculous idea.

From: Robert Shread 21 February 2022 16:56 PM

I have a number of Properties, and some Years ago I stopped taking Social Tenants, never had a problem since. Good Tenants don’t get evicted, it’s a no-brainer, why would you remove a good! Tenant with all the costs of advertising etc, a costly void period and probably redecoration. The only People who will benefit from the Governments interference is those who don’t deserve help.

From: Robert Shread 10 February 2022 10:59 AM

Yet another stupid worthless idea, as everyone has said, it won’t deter the rogue Landlords. I would be interested to see a register of Landlords that states their ethnic origin.

From: Robert Shread 31 January 2022 14:34 PM

Sadly, the Government are as guilty as the Media and other half witted organisations in stoking the fire of hatred against Landlords. As other people have mentioned, the name is irrelevant, whatever we are called it does not change anything.

From: Robert Shread 06 January 2022 11:08 AM

It’s all take and no give, Government perusing easy targets instead of dealing with scrounges and big Corporations who pay little or no Tax.

From: Robert Shread 31 December 2021 09:37 AM

In my experience there is no such thing as a good letting agent. Do it all myself now and get far less grief.

From: Robert Shread 26 November 2021 10:47 AM

Labour are a bunch of Idiots, do they really think Rogue Landlords care about being named and shamed. If these Landlords had any sense of shame they would not become Rogue Landlord in the first instance. I totally agree with taking action against such Landlords, but stop trying to make all Landlords look bad in the Public’s eye.

From: Robert Shread 15 November 2021 10:01 AM

Government interference is always a disaster, they don’t live in the real World. And as for all these warm hearted soft headed organisations like Shelter, Generation Rent etc, they are just a joke that will back fire on Tenants.

From: Robert Shread 28 October 2021 16:36 PM

Some great comments here, by People of higher intellect, than this idiot of a Politician. It’s a bit like the Footballer who has been going on about Social injustice, how much has he donated ?.

From: Robert Shread 25 October 2021 12:48 PM

As Tricia said, check the EPC register, but then the Government don’t have anyone bright enough to think of this. Bunch of idiots!.

From: Robert Shread 22 October 2021 14:40 PM

It’s an unrealistic scheme, but then when did any Government body have a sensible proposal. Heat Pumps are not the answer.

From: Robert Shread 21 October 2021 14:31 PM

As usual, the Government going off at halfcock, Heat Pumps are only realistic in new Builds.

From: Robert Shread 18 October 2021 09:07 AM

Shelter is run by Socialists whose only purpose seems to be spreading misinformation and creating ill feelings between Tenants and Landlords. Very sad People really, they are like Terrorists without any real useful or meaningful purpose.

From: Robert Shread 15 October 2021 10:03 AM

As others have said, I won’t be letting to Pet owners any more. These are my Properties and I am not having a half witted Government Pen pusher telling me what to do. As I have said on many occasions, if you can’t hold down a job in the real World, just get a job working for the Government, bunch of idiots.

From: Robert Shread 08 September 2021 09:35 AM

Tenants etc should worry less about what Landlords have, and concentrate on earning more themselves, rather than winging.

From: Robert Shread 28 August 2021 14:50 PM

She’s just another warm hearted soft headed Champagne Socialist. But not so much of a Socialist that she would give up her meaningless title.

From: Robert Shread 13 August 2021 10:08 AM

Some might say they are just a bunch of Socialist retards! I of course could possibly say this as it may be libelous.

From: Robert Shread 11 June 2021 13:07 PM

This sort of statement just goes to prove that these groups are seriously lacking in intelligence. More than likely their Members are non-achievers and very sad bitter People. We should pity them really.

From: Robert Shread 11 June 2021 09:55 AM

Best thing this Country has done for Years, and the EU Politicians have shown what nasty controlling People they are. Glad they made themselves look stupid and incompetent over the Covid vaccination, just sorry for ordinary Europeans that have suffered as a result.

From: Robert Shread 28 April 2021 14:32 PM

How about the Police getting tough with Scum Bag Tenants?. Silly Woman.

From: Robert Shread 26 April 2021 09:04 AM

Been a Landlord for 20 Years, issued just one section 21 to a Scum Bag, who did not pay the Rent. After I obtained a section 21, She and her Scum Friends trashed the House before disappearing. I involved the Police and a warrant was issued for her arrest, 18 Months later the Police advised She was arrested at the Airport when going on Holiday. Needless to say I was delighted to have spoilt Her Holiday, strange these poor downtrodden Tenants can’t pay the Rent, but can afford Foreign Holidays. Rinder needs a reality check, Landlords live in the real World, it’s not rubbish T.V. For idiots who should be at work. The Mans a fool!.

From: Robert Shread 21 April 2021 15:08 PM

When the Local Councils stop encouraging Benefit Tenants to abuse Landlords then perhaps they will be accepted. As long as Councils employ Left wing Socialists, they will never.be trusted.

From: Robert Shread 20 April 2021 18:32 PM

And what a surprise She’s from the Labour Party! Desperate for Votes.

From: Robert Shread 15 April 2021 10:04 AM

Why don’t all you Lefty’s take a break, or just try living in the real World, where if you put in the effort you get the reward, after you have taken the risk.

From: Robert Shread 13 April 2021 12:06 PM

There is always a smart arse like you, the General Public tend to rely on these things being pointed out by Solicitors, however this does not always happen. As for these unscrupulous Freeholders, they are Parasites and the more the Government can do to restrict their ability to rip off the Public the better. Leaseholds should be totally abolished.

From: Robert Shread 22 March 2021 15:01 PM

Hi Wendy, I would be very suspicious of your Electrician. The Consumer Unit, or Fuse Box as you call it, does not have to comply to New regs. As long as it is safe and has RCD protection, so don't let them con you. In reality probably 80% of existing installations do not come up to the new Reg's, they are mainly intended for New Installations..

From: Robert Shread 22 January 2021 11:48 AM

Hi Paul I am hardly naïve, been in and around the Construction Industry all my working Life. Built up my Lighting Company from scratch, which was very successful. I may now be retired but it does not mean I have to let so called Trades People take me for a ride. It seems Gas Engineers, Plumbers and Electricians are the worst of the Trades. if we just accept that as Landlords we are fair game, where will this end, we all need to complain the Trades body's etc and keep it in the Public Eye.

From: Robert Shread 15 January 2021 16:31 PM

As usual with Government Guidance it's vague, if it is left to individual Councils to apply their own Policy on this issue, how can a Landlord know how they stand. I would like to raise another issue whilst here, this compliance requirement is an Electricians License to rip you off. I have had 3 of my Properties tested so far, 2 were fine but the 3rd one failed. However it should not have failed the Electrician put down code C2, which means unacceptable, when in fact it should have been C3 Improvement recommended, he then offered to rectify the non-existent problem for £180.00. I am a retired Electrician so pulled him up on this, he will not now respond to any means of contact. There are several reports of Landlords being ripped off by Electricians on the OpenRent Forum. Landlords should Post this problem on as many discussion sites as possible, and complain to their MP's about this dreadful situation the Authorities have imposed on all Landlords.

From: Robert Shread 13 January 2021 11:23 AM

Well what a surprise! She’s a Labour Politician. Obviously lives in Cloud Cuckoo land as do all Socialists. A better message to give to People is that they are in charge of their own destiny, and should not expect others to Pay their debts.

From: Robert Shread 18 December 2020 09:46 AM

The Government pander to these lefty idealists who are invariably non-achievers or work (joke) for a Government Dept and could not hold down a job in the real World. This Country has totally lost it’s way, I suspect we will soon see an exodus of Wealth creators, and all you will be left with will be wingers.

From: Robert Shread 12 November 2020 09:49 AM

What an idiot!, can't be bothered to waste any more words.

From: Robert Shread 06 November 2020 09:34 AM

I stopped using Agents many Years ago, they were useless,. If there was a problem at the Property they would just send a Contractor without questioning whether it was the Tenants responsibility or could be resolved simply by the Tenant. They also caused ill feeling between the Landlord and Tenant, and since I have run all my Tenancies myself, I have great relationships with my Tenants. Agents are an expensive non- effective extravagance.
