Landlord Law Blog Roundup from 27 October

This post is more than 10 years old

November 2, 2014 by Tessa Shepperson

white-coffee-200We have our HMO Workshop with David this week – but if you wanted to come along its too late.  We’re fully booked.

David will be doing another one, probably next March.

However we do have places on my workshops on Tenancy Agreements in December (London) and Ending Tenancies (Cambridge) and Peter Marcus’ workshop on Landlords Repairing Obligations (Norwich).

You can find out about all our workshops here.

But what happened on the blog?

Monday

Can your tenant apply for the penalty for deposit non protection if he’s asked for it to be offset against rent arrears?

A landlord thinks his tenant looses his right to apply for the penalty for non compliance with the deposit regulations if the deposit is offset against rent arrears.  See why this is not the case here …

Tuesday

A companion and Guide to the Private Rented Sector Code

A little site I have done to display the code in a more user friendly format.  Read about it here …

Wednesday

Does a landlord have to allow one of joint tenants to leave before the end of the term?

Another blog clinic question about whether one of joint tenants has the right to leave early.  Find out more here …

Thursday

Who is liable for a deceased tenant’s rent arrears?

Dad dies leaving no assets.  Do the relatives have to stump up and pay his rent arrears to his landlord?  See the answer here …

Friday

Ben Reeve Lewis Friday Newsround #177

Its Official.  Ben is turning into his Dad.  He also looks at housing heroes and housing doublespeak and what it means.  Read it all here …
