Ending tenancy

[Noteveryonescupoftea24]

I moved into a private rented property in September and had nothing but bother with my landlord not responding to repairs that are in need of being done
The radiator has been leaking for over 3 weeks now and tonight we are actually left with no water as it was squirting out so had to isolate the water. Have exchanged messages with my landlord and she just gives me excuses and expects me to fix it etc , there's lots to it.
My tenancy is due to end 17th March but I just want to leave. I have 750 in a tenancy deposit scheme and my rent is 650 a month
What would happen if I just leave?
I don't want too but she won't do anything. I've reported her tonight

You can’t just leave, you are tied into the end of your contract and are responsible for the rent until that date so she could and would take you to court to get those payments.

You need to report through proper channels as I see you already have and continue with that process.

You can't just leave.

Report the disrepair issues to the council. They will inspect the property and give the landlord a deadline to compete repairs.

Ask the landlord to reduce the rent until the repairs are completed. If you have no water then the property would be considered uninhabitable, so they should agree that you should not pay rent for the period that it is uninhabitable. If they will not agree to reduced rent you can make a claim against them to try and get some of the rent back.

We also learnt that she hasent registered for the selective licensing with the local council
I read somewhere we can send a form to courts for a rental repayment order

You can inform the council that they haven’t registered for the selective licensing, it’s a legal requirement and the council may agree to come and an inspect the property off the back
of the concerns.

She can be fined for not having a selective licence.
