Q. I am a landlord of a buy to let property and my tenants are now 3 months in arrears of rent. What can I do?
A. If the tenancy is an Assured Shorthold Tenancy, you will be entitled to issue proceedings for possession subject to the correct Notices to Quit being sent to the tenants. We can prepare these Notices for you and deal with all aspects of gaining possession and a money judgment for the rent arrears if necessary. We can also prepare and draft tailor made tenancy agreements for you which will protect your position as landlord to your best advantage instead of having to rely on standard documents from estate agents.


Q. My neighbours and I already own the freehold of our building and we now want to extend all of our leases. How can we do this?
A.  Since you are the freeholder and the leaseholder in this situation, you are able to extend, amend or vary your leases as you see fit. We can prepare up to date and modern leases for you to improve the value and marketability of your flats.


Q. My company owns the freehold of a small block of flats and I would like to manage the building myself. What can I do?
A.  It can often be more cost effective to manage the building yourself as most agents will charge a fixed annual fee whether work is done or not. We can prepare legally compliant ground rent and service charge demands for you to use aswell as advise you on your obligations as landlord under the leases.
