Landlord issues more than 100 Section 21 Notices

[Wings]

Corporate Landlord issues his tenants with more than 100 Section 21 Notices, and follows the advice I have previously advised PH landlords, and that is to issue with the s21 Notice all tenancy documents, ie. gas safety certificate, EPC, deposit certificate etc.

All five of the s21 Notices I have recently issues, tenants have ended their tenancies, with only one requiring court papers to be processed, and even then no court hearing required to obtain repossession.

Still not too late for landlords to serve Section 21 (6A) notices.

Well well done you. I'd say pat yourself on the back but you already seem to have done that.

And they* say landlords aren't evil.

Evil landlords evil just for being landlords.
Evil if they want out.

Any tenants who voted labour, tough.
Those that didn't I feel sorry for.

My friend's daughter was evicted under S21 a couple of months back

Model tenant, good professional scientist job in Herts. Couldn't find anything else affordable in area to rent, dearth of property available and all out of her budget

Moved back home with parents and now been offered a job in Australia .. she's off

I dont blame her!

I wish the UK was run by competent people and not as some kind of hellscape, where the priorities are a million miles away from what's required!

The problem is 40-50% of people (at least in the UK) support an ideology which is closer to a mental health disorder.

They wish to increase/dilute the UK population (increasing house prices, suppressing wages), even if it's by importing rapists, terrorists and poor people.

They punish success via tax, even if the successful leave. This includes making employees more expensive. Then they wonder why nobody hires.

They punish landlords then wonder why they evict.

They're not very good at identifying men from women.

They're fine with whites being discriminated against.

And they don't seem too bothered about people sponging off benefits.

Utterly mental

So evil for being a landlord AND evil for stopping being a landlord.

Are you sure your position on this is reasonable and consistent and defensible?

There's a housing shortage. Squeezing landlords into selling their properties improves things a fraction for first time buyers at the expense of tenants. Allowing lots of "buy to let" in the past favoured renters and landlords over FTBers. It's little more than rearranging the deckchairs, though squeezing rent-takers out of markets is generally beneficial.

We need housing to be more affordable and we need small private investors to stop investing so much in property because it's fundamentally economically unproductive.

So far the government had failed to do much on the supply side ... as have the last umpteen governments. They should free up the supply of land to the point where there is virtually no premium for development land over farmland. They should allow local authorities to raise capital in order to build and they should allow local authorities to then sell property.

If I had said both of those you might have a point. But didn't.

So by your rules a landlord cannot ever stop being a landlord? Cannot evict and sell?

No there isn't. We had enough houses in the 1990s and houses don't just disappear.

There is a population crisis, not a housing shortage.

Easiest way to solve it? Reverse migration.

Not really. Those tenants will all have received what was offered to them in the original contract. They will now be on rolling monthly agreements that can be terminated by either party with the correct notice. S21 shouldn’t really be needed but the landlord is taking no risks. The new legislation is effectively breaking private contracts between two parties.

A far more logical approach than the new rules, would be official monitoring of a variety of clear fixed term contracts with obligations relating to both parties.
