Well its done ive sent an email to my landlord giving a months notice on my house thats falling apart. Just hoping they accept it as we have found a nice little house for me in a nice location. So please keep fingers crossed for me tomorrow when i call them for an answer and that the other house hasnt gone by then too. |

I was asking jay, about these landlords and they are breaking the law, they are supposed to get things fixed in the same amount of time as you would yourselves. You can take them to court for not carrying out their responsibilites. They cant leave you in houses like that. |

As long as you are not trying to terminate outside the bounds of your contract you shouldn't need good luck. If you are but feel its down to unacceptable conditions then its still no reason for luck as he has failed to honour the agreement.
Either way if he does not accept seek legal advice however I doubt any landlord has the power to make you stay. |

"if it 2 months - not sure if you can mannage it - but would it not be better to accept the other house - and fork out a months rent extra.. "
cant afford it but the landlord is in breach of contract so we will argue the toss with them and try. They have just left this house to fall apart so have no interest in it really

I think if you have to pay anything its one or two months rent. They can take you to court to get the full amount but generally they dont bother because of the cost to the landlord. Plus if you can prove its unfit to live in |

I am trying to terminate two months early due to them not looking after the property and maintaining their side of the contract if they refuse we might just go anyway and forfit the deposit |

I have rented twice from private landlords and twice from agents appointed by the landlord.
My experience has been that the direct landlord option is far better for getting things done, getting clauses in the tenancy agreements changed etc.
Have got to say, my current landlord is an absolute gem hence why I've stayed 6 years in a pokey flat that I intended to use as a stopgap on a 6 month lease.
Just a shame the area isn't better or I would stay much longer.
The next trick will be finding a decent property with a landlord that accepts pets ! |

Take pictures, video clips now, document the faults, log the days and times you have asked for work doing and site it as reasons for leaving. If they don't accept tell them you will peruse it. Evidence is king so make sure you have some. |

Well I would have thought you could mutually dissolve the contract. If not then small claims court and report them for an unsafe property though I would have thought they would prefer a months notice for ease. |

I was about to say the same. Lots of photos, any emails or letters etc. Any proof of any kind in case it is needed at a future date - particularly if they try to keeep your deposit to pay for unecessary 'repairs' and make out YOU haven't taken sufficient care of the place. |
