Product Description

Product Description

Whether you are a landlord looking to make a success of buy to let, or a tenant seeking to avoid rogue landlords, Renting & Letting is the definitive handbook for you. This practical guide is packed with detailed information on rights and obligations, the ins and outs of dispute resolution, deposits, security, safety, taxation and mortgages, as well as energy performance certificates, tenancy deposit protection schemes, and Capital Gains Tax.

This new edition of Renting & Letting covers a breadth of properties, from company lets and holiday flats to student accommodation and multiple occupation lets. Drawing on many years of experience in property investment, Kate Faulkner gives clear advice on the possible pitfalls, explaining vital financial and legal considerations in an accessible, jargon-free manner. She describes what landlords and tenants should look for in a rental property, and what costs you will incur, as well as what additional resources you will need throughout your letting or renting experience, whether it's working out who will manage the let, or who to turn to if things go awry.

Format:Paperback
This is a very informative, practical and comprehensive guide detailing the legal obligations for both Landlords and Tenants in England, Wales and Scotland. This is essentially a reference book and is therefore not the sort of book that needs to be read from cover to cover. It has been compiled by legal experts and successfully manages to convey to the reader in plain English the legal terms and complexities of tenancy agreements.

The book starts by giving details of the different rights of tenants under the various types of tenancies currently being offered. Of particular relevance for both landlord and tenant alike are the different rights offered to tenants under Shorthold tenancies compared with Assured and other tenancy types. The book also gives sample cases of common problems encountered during the landlord / tenant relationship and gives a clear indication of each party’s legal positions.

The authors do insist that, in the event of a tenancy problem, it is not a replacement for legal advice. Nevertheless it does give the reader a good grounding in how to prevent such problems from occurring. It also arms the reader with a good basic knowledge of their legal position. This could be of particular use when discussing tenancy problems with a member of the legal profession.

Very high level. 27 Sep 2010
Format:Paperback
This is definitely a high level overview from the points of view of both tenant and landlord. While this is a good starting point it does not have a great deal of detail, and puts a very disproportionate emphasis on using the law and the courts to remove your tenants. If you believed Which?, no tenant ever left a property willingly at the end of their tenancy.

The one thing I wanted and for which I am still looking is a 'landlord's checklist' of everything that needs to be done before each new tenant.
