Landlord Negligence Claims

Many landlord negligence claims in the UK arise from cases where reports of disrepair or improper upkeep have been continually reported but have been duly ignored. However, negligence can occur at several other forms, too, from financial demands without due notice, failure to provide tenants with a notice to vacate the premises, failure to advise of works being undertaken at a property to more besides. 

Essentially, any facet of your rental agreement which has been duly ignored or contradicted by a landlord may be due cause for landlord negligence claims to be pursued. Therefore, you must always retain your physical contract documentation and any paper trails of communication you may have with your landlord – as these can only bolster your claim should you need to make one in due course.

Landlord Negligence Lawsuit

Before diving into an entire landlord-negligence lawsuit, it is vital to understand your place regarding your rental agreement, responsibilities, and expectations before you make a claim. 

You should always make attempts to contact your landlord outright when matters of disrepair or related concerns arise – you should ideally report such cases via dated letter to your landlord’s home or office address. You should retain digital and physical copies of your own. 

We recommend that you follow up shortly afterwards should the matter remain unresolved. 

Do bear in mind that any cases where landlord negligence in The Dock IV9 8 is pursued must outright confirm that the tenant in question is not at fault. Therefore, any problems caused by failure to comply with the rental agreement or of vandalism will hold no water when you go to court.

Ensure you follow your rental agreement to the letter.

What is a landlord liable for?

Landlord obligations include providing a "warranty of habitability" to their tenants. This is performed by ensuring that your tenant's rental is liveable, safe, and clean. Financials, taxes, utilities, and property maintenance are all responsibilities of a landlord.

What can't your landlord do?

Landlords are not allowed to access tenanted homes without sufficient notice or to terminate a tenancy before the lease expires. Unless otherwise stipulated in the lease or by the municipality, rent increases are not permissible. 

What happens if you damage a rental property?

The renter is accountable for any damage they make to the rental property. Damages should be reported as soon as possible so that they can do repair work or at the very least inspected by the landlord or a professional. 

Legal for Landlords

Is it legal for landlords to act beyond the remits of the rent agreement?  Not at all – this document is legally binding for you both and is drawn up impartially with a legal professional to hand.
