hi nutty,
my landlady owns @ 16 houses around great barr and kingstanding- , i have a 3 bed semi with huge garden which i rent for £375 pcm.
shes a great landlady, i never see her, only once every year to sign new agreement, they only ever come round if i need something doing to the house.
i can put you onto her if you like, let me know...

thanx 4 the suggestion of new york cars, im going to suggest this to my other mate ( remember suzanne coley? in our textiles class?) shes our other best mate, it would be fun to go up broad st in one of those cars!!!

OOH - a thread just for me. I would be very grateful if you could put her on to me. A couple of questions though if you don't mind.

1. Did you have to pay a months rent in advance and a deposit ??

2. Are you allowed to decorate and stuff like that ??

3. Does she let them for a long time ?? I don't want to have to move again in the near future ??

We have rented before but sometimes been ripped off.

I'll ask my dad about Broad Street. I think he's dione that before for someone.

I don't remember Suzanne at all. Am beginning to think that maybe we weren't in the same class, who else was in your textiles class ???

I think Demelza, Clair Price and oh i can't remember anymore. What year did you leave again ??? I left in1994

i payed a month in advance but not a deposit aswell, ( as far as i can remeber)

you can do what you like to the house as far as decorating is concerned ( not take walls down obviously) i decorated my livingroom(as i spend so much time sat in it i want it nice!)
and both of the boys rooms have been decorated.
ive been in here 4 years this summer, my friend has been in hers for 5 years this year,
she prefers people to stay in her houses a long time as it saves her the hassle of finding new tenants every 12 months.

dont worry about getting ripped off, they do everything by the book, for example, every 6 months we have a corgi reg plummer come out and check all gas fittings etc
i had a problem with my boiler a few weeks before xmas, within 12 hours i had a brand new boiler fitted.
if your a good tenant then shes good with you, and as i said, i never see her, she rings me every couple of months just to make sure all is ok.
ill give her a call over the weekend and say i know someone who may be interested and then ill give you her number and you can call her.

hope she has something for you which will help you feel a bit better- and get out of that bloody shoebox!!!!!

i think demelza was in my textiles- do you remember sarah griffiths?
suzanne was quite a big girl with dark hair.

Cheers Emma, she really does sound like a good landlord, and the rent is o.k. I would definatly look after the property and probably stay there forever. Can afford to pay a month in advance but not a deposit aswell at the mo. But yeah i'm definatly interested. Thanx again.
Sarag Griffiths rings a bell i think.

ooh fingers crossed nutty

Thanx Lisa78. I will have my toes and anything else posible crossed of course.
Can't wait til the day i can start a 'Nutty's got a house ' thread

Nutty, I am sure that we are all looking forward to seeing that thread being started

hi nutty, im at work all day today, so ill ring her and leave a message on her ansafone, she might not get back to me till monday so just hang fire for the phone call!!!

ill log on over weekend if she does get back straightaway, its just she doesnt really work at the weekend, only on emergencies
take care mateXX

Thanx Emma No rush, i'm not going anywhere
