Filthy Tenants, Ignorant Landlord
Discussion
Few years ago the house beside me was let out and a 'family' moved in. How they afford the rent is one thing but thats for another day. My main concern is that since they moved in they have done absolutely nothing to keep the house clean, tidy or in anything like good condition. The windows are filthy, sills are green and covered in lichen, driveway covered in weeds and overgrown as is the garden. Gutters are leaking and so is the down pipe which meant a dividing wall I recently painted was covered in the contents from their sink, absolutely disgusting.
Basically it looks a right mess and without wanting to sound like a snob it's a real eyesore in the street.
The landlord calls up once a month for the rent and despite a few attempts to drop hints that he might want to maintain the property he has done absolutely nothing and doesn't really care. Is there anywhere I can contact as i'm certain the inside of the house is in similar condition to the exterior. I looked up and found he was a registered landlord. Surely there is a certain standard a property needs to be kept in.
