If they pay their rent regularly, on time and in full as per the contract. If they take care of the house and do not trash it, as per the contract. If they stop asking their landlord to pay for, and fit light bulbs, as per the contract. If they take care of the garden as per the contract. If they swiftly inform the landlord of any issues as per the contract. If they do not sub let as per the contract. If they have no pets as per the contract. Then they have a lot fewer worries than ANY landlord!!!!!!! And they can stay forever as far as I am concerned.

Invest in taking it to the High Court. I have had to do it a number of times and it has worked well. It might cot about £1,000, but if you call tomorrow and all your paperwork is in place, you can get your property back in about 3 days maximum. Try it and Good Luck.

Not only that, in Germany, when the tenant leaves a house or flat, they have to pay for a complete renovation of all rooms to the satisfaction of the Landlord. If it is not done properly and by professionals, they get charged by the landlord.

If it is decided to scrap 21 and to introduce rent caps and open ended contracts (can be terminated by the tenant of course and NOT the landlord!), then the Government better be prepares for a mass sale of to rent properties the moment the law is approved, hence making 10's of thousands and more tenants out on the streets. The Govt. will have a much larger problem on their hands that can ever comprehend. Well done again boys and girls....You will surpass yourselves in Government idiocy, thoughtlessness and understanding of what you will be doing. They at least should be banned from selling their properties. Hypocrites to the end. All 650 of them. Grow up and look at the real facts. I bet the MP's who actually rent houses, will divest themselves of their houses as soon as the bill will look like passing.

Can it possibly happen? It will be a total unmitigated disaster!!!! How long would it take them to get a bill passed?

From: David Crisp 09 September 2019 10:35 AM

Agreed....I cannot wait to increase my monthly rent to cover all the cash the Government very cleverly took away from me. I run a business...As ANY business, when my costs go up, so do my prices....! It is just simple economics, so how come all the super First Class with Honours Economic graduates in Whitehall, just do NOT get it!

From: David Crisp 01 August 2019 10:08 AM

Should have been at least double that..!

From: David Crisp 01 August 2019 09:33 AM

Without doubt. It would also be better for tenants. I bet the local housing authorities though will hate it.....It will mean (heaven forbid) that they might have to work harder...!

From: David Crisp 01 August 2019 09:33 AM

Not one of those idiots will have any idea of what you are talking about!!!!!!

From: David Crisp 01 August 2019 09:24 AM

All any council following this route is doing is causing tenants more grief. The more a Landlord has in terms of costs means higher rents. FACT! And normal business practice. I fail to understand how councils refuse to see that they do exactly the same with their business. Ignorance is not an excuse.

Ridiculous. What planet do these judges come from?

From: David Crisp 22 March 2019 14:18 PM

I saw this recently and how true it is? This will be the wording of my ads if I am forced to have to accept DSS,UC people: "Must be in secure employment with affordability. Must be credit worthy. Must offer a payment with no risk of clawbacks. Must not present any breach to landlords mortgage or insurance terms. Must pay in advance from the outset." See if they can fulfill that.

Are we surprised with the rules put in place by this totally incompetent Government who have wittingly put in regulations that have the complete opposite of the original intent and need? It is like the Universal Credit system, but on steroids. Worthless and hurting everyone.

How is it possible that the current Government and Opposition just do NOT, or do NOT want to, understand that the removal of these fees will INEVITABILTY lead to increases rents, which, according to them, is EXACTLY what they are trying to restrain!!! Extraordinarily ignorant.

From: David Crisp 29 January 2019 09:58 AM

If I rent a car and damage it...I pay...and I pay a lot. Much more that the actual damage. Rent a car. Or rent a house....where is the difference? So how come these wasters and ignorant people think they are entitled to get away with it and with no repercussions whatsoever? Worst of all, local authorities and the LAW almost positively encourage them to do it. I am sad that the days are gone that the moment / second a rent is not paid on time, that I could personally go round to MY property and throw them and their belongings out in the street. We have gone so soft. Just like the country in general. I will chase ever single one for the rest of their lives.....Again...because I can...….

My problem was also with a single mum.....So Lyndsey Jones...….it is common place. My local council told me the very same, that it is their major problem area. In any case, I will never rent again to a single mother, or housing benefit crooks. The carelessness of the system and indeed the law has made me now to look after myself first. In my instance the first strike of any tenant and they are out. And I let my tenants be aware of that principle at contract time. Never had any issues since I made that 100% clear.

From: David Crisp 10 January 2019 09:58 AM

And why does the legal system not support me too. The Housing Benefit person I talk about was ordered by A JUDGE of the Crown to pay me £340 in costs that her actions had caused me. Of course she has never paid me and at the same time has no regard for the Law or the Judge. She literally spat in my face, the Judge and the Law with no repercussions whatsoever. Even the court bailiffs could not get the payments as she was never in her new property whenever they called and they said they could not carry ON GOING. In the meantime I took out a CCJ out on her and intend to renew the CCJ every 6 years as long as I live. Just out of principle and because I can. And I will. I would have thought that the law would want itself to be made a mockery of. But clearly it does not. Next time I break the law, and steel a Kit Kat, I bet 100% they will not le me get away and I will end up behind bars. Total idiocy.

I am here to provide housing, not to let theses types of people to rip me off. No matter how lucky I have been.

From: David Crisp 10 January 2019 09:09 AM

Excellent idea. Wish I had done that with the only bad tenant I have had over 25 years...... Unfortunately that tenant was a housing benefit tenant (against me better judgement)…..And then Government still punishes Landlords. The lack of Govt support and understanding will eventually lead t more and more landlords using the law to their defence and benefit rather than trying to be supportive to tenants. For me, from here on, I will even be issuing the section 21 notice 3 months before a tenancy end, just to ensure they cannot mess me about at the end of the agreement.

From: David Crisp 10 January 2019 09:02 AM

I don't understand that!

From: David Crisp 17 October 2018 10:18 AM

All damage MUST be paid for by the tenant. From whatever source, but not mine.

From: David Crisp 17 October 2018 10:15 AM

As a Landlord, I then will loose more income when the tenant leaves with no responsibility for the damage they will certainly have made. No responsibility for any damage will lead to ever more damage. My response will therefore be obvious. I will charge a higher rent, and if people don't to rent at the increased price, then so be it. A quick example: on a £2,000pcm rent will mean holding a deposit of £3,000. If that is not there, then I will be forced to put the monthly rent up to £2,250pcm to cover that loss just to stand still. However, under those circumstance, at least I would be guaranteed to have repair monies available without having the hassle of a deposit holding company at the end pf a tenancy.

From: David Crisp 17 October 2018 10:03 AM

Insane that the Government wants more housing on the one hand, yet punishes the (Landlord) suppliers in doing so. Additionally, they encourage people NOT to supply housing, especially so with cumbersome, and archaic laws about tenancy rights and the incredibly slow and sluggish legal system for the landlord to retain control over his property. It really makes me want to withdraw all 7 properties I own, del them privately and take off the rental market. There you go Mr. Government.... an extra 7 houses you will have to build.
