PG: I am very sorry to say that I have dealt with over 30 different agencies all around the UK, and ALL OF THEM WITHOUT EXCEPTION have been pretty bad, whether buying or selling, all they are good at is lying ‼️ Trying to view a property? Oh the owner has not given us the keys: is away on holiday ... and so it goes on. Selling: no-one has shown any interest ... but when I swapped to another agent I had FIVE viewings lined up ... I've even phoned about a property and refused a viewing, so I said I would make an offer and was told very bluntly "You cant put an offer in on that property" (but NAEA states all interested parties should be treated equally and offers can be placed right up to exchange.) You need to jump on the other side and see the REAL life of agencies 😠😠

Does piss me off when i hear people saying i cant afford two mortgages. Ok so you have one already for yourself and now youre not happy with what youve earned and want more so get a second one you cant afford and pass on the cost to someone who rents because they really cant afford a mortgage so you get two houses at the end of it. Its greedy simple as that youre inflating costs to people who will never own a property and are shocked when they fall on hard times. That was only directed at the chaap who said her cant afford to pay two mortgages. Its simple DONT BORROW MORE THAN U CAN AFFORD. Instead of relying on minimum wage or close to people that can barely scrape by. Its totally wrong people not paying their rent but some peoples greed catches up with them and then they cry about it i have no sypathy. Idiots absolute idiots.

just do it on your own ... you wuld be better off without these agents

Why let an agent take a fee for doing nothing but paperwork. If the house is up to standard at the time of renting, the chances of needing the agent is slim to none. So you’re paying 10% of the rental price every month for them to print the initial contract.

As a Registered Landlord with 2 Councils since 1984. I take exception that this programme which seems to treat ALL Landlords as if we ALL are Scum! This is NOT true. Would I have continued in Business for over 35 Years? The answer is NO. Another aspect is the couple who were 1st time Landlords, who quite frankly had NOT ONE CLUE as to how be Good Landlords, OR even just Landlords! What a silly way for them to simply buy a property 350 or so miles away And only step foot in it first time once problems with Tenants/ Police etc. Obviously they did NOT choose a Reliable Experienced Letting Agent . Who should have inspected their property every SIX weeks or so. Carefully checking EVERY room & cupboard / both sides of All Mattresses etc. They then should have forwarded their Report of Property Condition to the Landlords!It beggars belief that so many folk are trying to become Private Residential Landlords without ANY experience nor Knowledge of the latest / up to date government requirements / legally required items! No wonder their tenants do NOT show RESPECT to them.

When i saw the agent i understood the situation precisely.

Here in the province of Quebec, Canada for exemple if the tenant is 3 weeks late on the rent the landlord can file for an eviction and 4 to 6 weeks later the tenant is out on the street. Also you don't need a lawyer, just maybe a bailiff to serve the tenant with the eviction documents and it cost a few hundred dollars, not thousands like in the UK.

A fool and his/her money are soon parted. This agent misses one payment and she's not all over him? She continues to let him collect money from her tenants?

Margaret. You're lovely. But please sue the estate I would

“Mind your own business!”…… That’s what she should have done from the start.

Paul I sure could have used you a few years ago when I had a terrible tenant. He had the gull to tell everyone that would listen to him that he owned my house. But he really didn't know that he was talking to friends who knew better and informed me of what he had been saying. He ended up breaking many of my concerns in my lease with him. And he ended up doing a runner. And I got him in court where he couldn't lie because of all the people he had been talking to one of those people was my attorney who as I mentioned knew better and knows what is what and who is who. I got my money and damages plus legal fees. I then had a new tenant that still is in the house and she has a huge hug and a cup of coffee for me when ever I visit or go to babysitting for her. Yes I will mind her children and she appreciates her landlady

I sorry but its her fault that it got to £20,000 in unpaid rent. Why did she wait so long? The first thing I would do is take over the management by seeing the the tenants and instructing them to pay me directly instead of the agent or face leaving the property when the first month rent did not arrive from the agent and then pursue the agent for the missing rent. How can you owe £20,000 in rent only to take action at that point? pure laziness comes to mind.

I don't know how long ago this video actually is, but the admistration to get the judgment has been speeded up. However, makes me wonder if this is criminal aswel.

The British Court isn't as sue happy like the USA. And if they get a judgement and he does a vanishing act it could take years to track him.

This is an interesting (albeit a bit narrow) series but, having seen many episodes, the series is heavily tilted towards dealing with bad tenants rather than bad landlords. I've just seen three consecutive episodes on TV in which all exclusively feature dealing with bad tenants, I would doubt very much that there is any episode that only features dealing with bad landlords. Even the ones with a mix of the two are generally more about bad tenants than bad landlords.

This whole letting agent thing is a weird concept. We don't have them in Hungary, where I live. You colkect your own rent.

I don’t feel sorry for landlords. They need to do a monthly inspection and if a tenants rent is more than 10 days late then out they go.. Why doesn’t the courts change to help landlords.. People who rent , rent for a reason. They can’t get a mortgage and their income is probably low and paying rent will probably be a job..

You might want to include outright thievery by Property Managers. So caled, property managers.
