Hi Everybody. A very busy week here at Landlord Law Towers.
I have been doing a lot of work preparing for Tenancy Deposit week next week leading up the launch of Tom Derrets brilliant book on tenancy deposits.
I have also changed my repossession service so that there are now just two options - do it yourself or pay for my ‘all in one’ service. See more on this below.
But what happened on the blog?
