Yes, your landlord can increase your rent during your tenancy, but they must follow certain rules. They must give you at least one month's notice in writing before the increase takes effect, and the increase must be fair and reasonable. If you disagree with the increase, you can negotiate with your landlord or challenge it through a rent assessment committee.

If you can't pay your rent, you should speak to your landlord as soon as possible to explain the situation. They may be able to offer a payment plan or come to an agreement with you. If you don't pay your rent, your landlord can take legal action to evict you. This process can take several months and will involve going to court. It's important to seek advice from a housing charity or Citizens Advice if you're struggling to pay your rent.

No, your landlord cannot enter your property without your permission unless they have given you prior notice and have a valid reason, such as to carry out repairs or inspections. The landlord must also give you reasonable notice and must not enter the property without your consent unless it is an emergency. If your landlord enters your property without your permission or without a valid reason, they may be committing a criminal offence under UK law.

If you have a problem with your landlord, you should first try to resolve the issue by speaking to them directly. If this does not work, you can contact your local council or a housing charity for advice. You may also be able to take legal action against your landlord if they are not meeting their legal obligations, such as providing a safe and habitable living environment. It is important to keep records of any communication and evidence of the issue.

The amount of notice your landlord has to give you before ending your tenancy depends on the type of tenancy agreement you have. If you have a fixed-term tenancy, your landlord cannot end the tenancy before the end of the fixed term unless you have breached the terms of the agreement. If you have a periodic tenancy, your landlord must give you at least two months' notice in writing. If you have a statutory periodic tenancy, your landlord must give you at least four weeks' notice in writing.

No, a landlord cannot evict a tenant without a valid reason. a landlord must follow the proper legal procedures and obtain a court order before evicting a tenant. The reasons for eviction may include non-payment of rent, breach of tenancy agreement, or the landlord needing to sell or move into the property.

A tenancy agreement is a legal contract between a landlord and a tenant that outlines the terms and conditions of the tenancy. It should include details such as the names of the parties involved, the property address, the rent amount and payment schedule, the length of the tenancy, the responsibilities of both parties, and any restrictions or rules that apply. It should also include information on how to end the tenancy and any procedures for resolving disputes.

No, your landlord cannot keep your deposit if you leave the property in good condition. Under UK law, landlords are required to return the deposit to the tenant at the end of the tenancy, provided that the property is left in the same condition as when the tenancy began, with reasonable wear and tear expected. If the landlord wishes to make deductions from the deposit, they must provide evidence of the damage or unpaid rent.
