Welcome to another Landlord Q & A!

Q: I have just bought an investment property that uses bottled gas. As a landlord, do I have to pay for the supply and hire of gas bottles?

A: Yes, the landlord is responsible for the provision of the gas bottles for the property, as well as the ongoing hire charges.

Q: My tenant is breaking their lease due to hardship. What costs can I charge them for?

A: You can charge a re-letting fee ( 1 or 2 weeks rent). Reasonable advertising costs and rent until new tenants move in or the end of the fixed term (whichever comes first)

Q: I am selling my investment property and I want to show the premises to prospective buyers. How much notice do I have to give the tenant beforehand?

A: It is recommended that the agreement is made with the tenant 7 days before entry is required and if possible, make the agreement in writing. Use the RealRenta platform for date and time stamping of the conversation.
