    Flat hunting in london is the most exhausting and frustrating process ever :( It's really annoying how the UK law doesn't protect tenants, a landlord pulled out of the contract literally 2 days before move in date, but I was lucky enough to get emergency accommodation from my uni. Just the thought of almost being homeless still gives me anxiety

      Yeah it’s awful, I signed a 10 month tenancy in an unfurnished full house all smiles and promises it would be renewed. Cut to 4 months in and £800 in moving fees and we were told they weren’t renewing. Asking people to move into unfurnished place to unfurnished place within 12 months or less is beyond stressful. 16 months contracts should be normalised not 12. Meanwhile, no chance of anyone getting on the properly ladder.

      That’s illegal. You can’t force an eviction without going to court and getting a notice. And you certainly can’t enter the property as a landlord while a tenant is in, even if they’re out of contract. I know this from the person above me having to evict and absolute horror tenant. Your friends should take legal action for reimbursement if that really happened to them.

Either these stories are from unsuspecting victims who don’t know their rights (which I’m guessing most are the case!) or a bit exaggerated if not fabricated as all those things described are completely illegal. It’s actually extremely difficult to evict a tenant on an AST. We took our landlord to court for harassment with an intent to evict and wanted the last 2 months worth of rent as that’s the period of harassment, was told to ask for more and the judge ended up awarding us with 9 months worth of rent!

    The landlord who pays the mortgage on the property you say wants to move back into the property he owns. you had a 12 month lease. Maybe the landlord worked abroad or away and has lost his job. If you wanted the complete certainty of a 2-3 year let there are many landlords who would offer that and perhaps next time it would be good to take advice on the lease next time. Flat prices have gone up as mortgage interest rates have risen from 2 percent to 6 percent. Many landlords are not on fixed rate mortgages.

    Sucks. And. Did you investigate what laws apply to homeowners and tenants? I don't know about the UK, but in my EUropean country, there are all sorts of protections of tenants. Homeowners who want or need flexibility, for example because they have to repatriate after having been sent abroad as expats for some time, will engage in contracts that are made to undercut or bypass such tenant protections. People who naively step into such legal vehicles would be surprised of being evicted at some point. Next to for how long the contract is agreed, tenant protection may also depend on the amount of rent you pay or your income, a license from the municipality to live there, etc.. So even when you decide to rent a house as an independent (without middle man) it probably helps to schedule an appointment with an agent for you to be enlightened about how this works in the UK, England, or London - a nation where medieval or feudal laws may still apply in some cases.

    Oh that is just a sh1t situation all around. I live in Canada, it's incredibly hard to find somewhere to live that's affordable and safe, these days. I have friends who are stuck in the worst dives because they literally cannot find anywhere to go to, and some who had to move back home (who were lucky enough to have the option) like me... Honestly, I understand that it happens, and it is also legal to do that here as well(and you *_only have to give 60 days notice if its between Oct-April months, otherwise its only 30 days notice for a month-to-month default rental_* even).
    Reclaiming a property to use personally is one of those always allowed things, so long as the proper notice is given. It feels like it shouldn't be allowed, but it is. If they don't move in, or they move someone else in, then there's some recourse to be had... but otherwise, you basically just have to go. It's heartbreaking! I really hope you are able to find a new place, and that its even better than this place was!

Landlord stated reasons of building renovations, however that turned out to be a lie as they increased prices and filled with new tenents.
    it was a tough processed and also hit me hard. The loss and instablily was a lot. But like you showed, enjoying the time you have left living there and treating yourself with comforts like favourite food helps.

    I was month-to-month until the leaseholder was like ending it. You have remaining month and next. I was trying to find a place after living in such a big space. Now I have a storage unit as my new room rental is smaller. It is considered a real bedroom. I’m anxious about the two months and then the following year if the landlord likes us, and let’s sign. I’m so terrified that I have to move again as stories have popped up on huge rent increases with rent renewals. I need golden girls home. I’m not joking. I can’t afford upkeep and maintenance and taxes of a property ever in my life. So many circumstances require multiple incomes to split cost. Good luck. Renting is only great if you understand the benefits and can move multiple times in life. You have to be ready to pack.

    five hundred pounds per week is about twenty five thousand pounds per year. If you pay that in rent until you get to my age then you'll will have spent almost three quarters of a million pounds which you will never see again.
    I'm sure you can get a hundred percent mortgage and you can own your own apartment where is no landlord to throw you out, you will have a financial asset that will help you as life goes on. And you will not get to my age without anything to your name.
    I'm so desperate to buy a property myself, I've never really been a stable financial situation and never really known which city I want to live in. So now I'm getting close to my fifties and I'm still renting. Don't make the same mistake as I have, don't throw away hundreds of thousands of pounds away on rent that you will never see again.

      Deposit is more important that how much you can pay as mortgage. 1st time buyer deposit is 65k on average. So unless their parents can help - no way you can go to a bank and just argue you can pay up 96% mortgage for a few thousand as down deposit. Plus you need to pass a stress test because interest rate are 4.25% right now….so yeah young people pay way more in rent but can save to buy.
      But I totally understand- I hate paying rent and I would love to buy but I can’t save enough so I’m looking for a second job just to allow me to do that. The U.K. housing market is insane.

    Agency will normally show their newly enquired flats/houses to the potentially renters they already know. It takes at least a week (taking photos, etc.) for the agency to be able to upload the properties online. That is why the property would have viewed a few times before it is officially online.

      Yes I understand - and I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with it, it’s just really disappointing when you thought you would live somewhere for years. Speaking of buying, I wish it was that easy. If we were to buy your current 1 bed, 34 square meter flat, we would pay £700.000, including at least a £140.000 deposit + legal fees etc. being straight out of uni with a £70k loan, I’m nowhere near that money.

      your comment is very tone deaf. Banks are currently not lending money unless you have a high deposit and strong income. She just got out of uni + she is an auto entrepreneur, so technically not the best profile to get a mortgage. Help to buy scheme isn't for everyone and with this scheme the property must cost under £600k and the maximum amount you can borrow is 240k, this doesn't buy you much in London, even in Zone 3/4.

    You have almost a million subscribers on YT and a job not to mention a live in BF. You travel always which must mean you have money.

Perhaps I’m overlooking something.

    • @macerly
      @macerly  Год назад +13

      Well, not really. Buying a flat in London (one bed) at least in the area we currently rent starts at £700.000. To buy this, you firstly need 20% deposit (£140.000) + a very high annual income. Because I’m a freelancer, my taxes are all weird, so whereas other people would need to earn xx times the loan fee, I would have to earn a lot more. This is without mentioning how banks have entirely pulled away from offering loans for first time buyers in the first place. In London, 50% of people rent, and the number is growing. Very very few people can afford to buy their own home these days, and the number is close to 0 if you’re in your 20s. So no, it’s not that easy.

      I think that a lot of these comments miss the point. It should be OK to rent, for a lifetime or for a while. It's simply not possible for everyone to buy and in some cases (if you're always moving cities, for example) it doesn't even make sense. There should be laws in place that make renting a reasonable way to live. Landlords have an interest in renting out their properties too, they're doing no one a favor. But they shouldn't be allowed to just do as they please, since housing is a basic right.

      That's not how human rights work: you're entitled to them wether you can afford them or not. If you are homeless, if you are struggling to find affordable housing, then society has failed you. It's a systemic issue, not an individual one. But I'm European, so I might have a different perspective on these matters.

    Don’t worry too much. I’m getting evicted too. I applied to a 60 days breathing space to give me some time to find somewhere else to live but honestly with the rise of interest rates landlords are selling. Sometimes I see flats for SALE AND for RENT at the same time because landlords are cornered. It’s not easy but for tenants 1 flats has 2-5 competing people and not only in London. I live in Surrey and have the same issues. Prices went up by 200 GBP for sure.

Property owners are getting totally hammered by interest rates and inflation (think insurance, repair costs, maintenance costs etc) and it’s nice to see someone gets this as I think landlords get vilified a lot.

It’s their property and they have to be able to do what is needed. However with the price of housing in England these days, tenants have to be protected.
      Of course it would be better if more people were able to afford to buy their own houses in the first place. I know the current market value of my house and it’s insane how much it’s got up in 20 years. My first house in cornwall was sold for just 17k back in 91. 30 years later and it’s worth around 275k A 16 times increase. I’m damn sure wages haven’t increased by 16x in line with it.
