Landlord or tenant disputes

The Council is keen to preserve good and co-operative relations between landlords and tenants in privately rented accommodation.

LEASE - The Leasehold Advisory Service (This link will open in a new window) is funded by the government to provide free legal advice to leaseholders, landlords and others on the law affecting residential leasehold and commonhold. Advice is available by telephone, letter or e-mail. Seminars and group discussions can also be arranged. LEASE also provides a range of free advice notes.

Most private tenancies proceed without difficulties, but the Private Sector Housing Team is prepared to intervene in disputes. On rare occasions where landlords are behaving unreasonably, the Council will use enforcement powers to combat harassment and exploitation under Protection from Eviction legislation.

Private tenants or landlords are encouraged to contact the Private Sector Housing Team for advice.
