Breaking a Tenancy

Errata

if i end up getting fed up of the constant moans and tutts i will no doubt end up swearing at them, telling them to 'do one' and again no doubt this will get back to our landlord - i have told our landlord the problem

Hopefully they will be more courteous than you and decide not to call the police and report your threatening behaviour. But you never know, they're old and could be unpredictable.

The landlord is under no obligation to try and find another tenant if you vacate early and is under no obligation to accept an alernative tenant that you have found.

Maybe not, I havent read the contract...

BUT everyone has a duty to limit losses.

Wrong Wrong Wrong. There is no obligation to mitigate loss.

Invite them round for tea and cake and make friends with them. That will go a long way to stopping them moaning.

...I would be interested to learn how many of you who have responded are actual landlords yourselves???

Several LLs who post on this board give good advice and support to tenants on all sorts of queries.

we can almost hear the foot-stamping .. if you look back you *have* been given advice, just not the advice that you wanted. That's often the way it is with a public forum.

it is as i said it is, the van IS NOT obstructing anyone its just the stupid neighbours across the road who happen to be old people and have prob lived there for 150 years and never had to have a large vehicle opposite the road from where there drive is.

Your Luton van has not mysteriously lengthened since you first looked at the property - if parking is vital to you then that's just one of those things that you should have checked out properly before signing up to the tenancy. We'll assume that your comments about your neighbours aren't intended to be ageist. A L uton is a commercial vehicle - did your LL know that you had one from which you would be running a business?

Can you really not make an effort to resolve the issue as Doozer/Chris 2685 suggest? What is wrong with simply having a chat (like an adult) and saying "can we work together to resolve this, it's upsetting for all of us?"

....why cant anyone on here give practical advice, i.e. how i can get out of the tenancy instead of questioning my original question and doubting why we want to move

I am on maternity leave until june which means im at home all day, i dont get to go to work and just see our snobby neighbours of a wkend

Being "at home all day" doesn't mean that you have to focus all your energies on rows with neighbours and try to use them to wriggle out of a Fixed Term tenancy Agreement. Being on maternity leave doesn't mean you have to sit and vegetate - get out and socialise with other parents to be, it may help you keep things in perspective.

You can only leave your tenancy early with the agreement of your LL and any replacement T has to be acceptable to the LL by being credit checked etc, if that is how the LL operates. Racism is wrong but it isn't up to you to decide what financial procedures a LL uses - his insurance/mortgage terms etc may well place restrictions on who qualifies as financially suitable.

Apart from anything else, it is just not wise to leave all your stock in the van overnight.

Sooner or later it will be robbed and you will have to repair the damage as well.

Yeah right..

He would sue for losses. Losses include not being able to let out. You provide evidence of a candidate & evidence of the fact you passed the candidate onto the landlord & then the judge would ask the landlord why he didnt take the applicant into account..

All admissible.

This is not admissable
You cannot force a landlord to take a new tenant
The tenant is in contract
The Landlord MAY choose to accept the remarketing of the property at the exiting tenants cost
The Landlord MAY choose not to

I take it you are referring to the 2006 judgement.


It concluded along the lines of "If the landlord chose to regard it as up to the tenant to propose an assignee, sub-tenant or, if he wished, a substitute tenant under a new tenancy, rather than take the initiative himself, that was not unreasonable, still less wholly unreasonable. "


The OP here has found a possible future tenant & if that tenant is a "suitable" tenant & the landlord refuses the same court would deem that to be unreasonable..

Google & read more of the judgement.
