been in current property nearly 10years.
in that time maybe landlords spent grand if that,
we landscaped garden
replaces most of dodgy flooring ourselves
repaint every year.
we fairly low maintainance.
we first got 6months.
then 12months but wouldent give us loger as he liked to up rent little each year.
every time we renewed tennancy they charged him admin fee and us. last lot was £90.
When i ring up they treat me like crap
rubbish communication.
go in and they pounce on me the i say im lettings and they say ohh go back.
They also have 2 numbers and if ring sales they get shirty.
they say the most stupid things
delay repairs.
inspections used to be annual but last few years they been quarterly which is nightmare rang shelter they said there is such thing as quiet enjoyment.
we have complained lot in 12months as getting fed up have avacado green bathroom 30years old falling apart and 30 year old kitchen falling part replaced with cheap nasty white units poorly by landlord which dont fit bottom units and narrow cant store much.
The gas man says place could do with new boilier
landlord des some stuff himself to save money badly.
hes ok not a people person, hates my kids.
hes annoyed with agents too and thinks they useless .
but now we have to move going to avoid current agents who treat us like crap never once been late with rent.
moving privatly so expensive we going to have to borrow to move as going to cost us 2hlalf grand to move and will be time delay in deposits if we get it all back mate had to go small claims with hers.
all very well saying complain but so many on short term tennancy of -12months they would just be given notice and new tennent moved in.
my landlord keep saying you know your rents cheap but place is dated falling part , 3beds but 3rd box , 1 reception , no garage we assume hes selling as would have spend money and take years to get money back on what he spends.
im glad t be leaving but worried about finding somewhere and how much will cost us and faced facts our rents going to be more now get anything half decent as we tied to area due to schools.
