Roundup of Common Landlord and Tenant Disputes













FAQS

What should I do if my neighbour is making excessive noise?

If your neighbour is causing disturbances, it's advisable to first communicate directly with them about the issue. If the problem persists, you can document the disturbances and report them to your landlord or relevant local authorities.

How can I identify if my landlord is breaching the tenancy agreement?

Review your tenancy agreement for specific terms. Common breaches include failure to maintain the property, not providing necessary repairs, or entering the property without proper notice. If you suspect a breach, document the relevant instances and discuss them with your landlord.

What are the health implications of mould and damp in rental properties?

Mould and damp can lead to various health issues, including respiratory problems, allergies, and other long-term health complications. If you suspect mould or damp in your property, it's important to notify your landlord immediately for inspection and remediation.

Can I withhold rent if my landlord does not address issues like mould or noise?

Withholding rent can lead to legal complications. It's generally advisable to document your concerns and communicate them to your landlord first. If they fail to address the issues, consider seeking legal advice or assistance from a local housing authority.

What steps should I take if I believe my rights as a tenant are being violated?

If you believe your rights are being violated, gather evidence of the issues you're facing, such as photos or written communication. You can then approach your landlord to discuss the issues. If the matter remains unresolved, consider seeking legal advice or contacting a tenant advocacy organisation for support.Terms of Use
