    erm... not sure y ur so upset
    i've never in my life heard of "dewllinghouse" - seems like an odd word that is 2 words joined up
    i googled it and got an answer - but still wasn't sure... so i thought i'd ask

    or did u get upset about my questioning the £150??

    thank u for the replies u did give all the same
    dwellinghouse should read dwelling house - the standard of your written English and your username did not indicate it was your second language so making a "fuss" over such a small error seemed to me to be unnecessary, particularly as the link in your first post gives a web security warning

    yes your inability to look up a fee was also annoying, obviously it could be out of date and would need to be checked, that goes without saying

    also if you had spent more time on google you would have found another property hawk page showing the fee at £175 so very obviously there is a need to check the amount

    ..

    Think you mean "Dwelling-House". Since it is mentioned in the act that gives you Section 21 (Housing Act 1988 - in particular ..
    ** Chapter 1: Meaning of Assured Tenancy (An AST is but a special form of Assured Tenancy) &

    ** SCHEDULE 2

    Grounds for Possession of Dwelling-houses let on Assured Tenancies
    ..
    I did wonder, have you done any basic training in how to be a landlord, or read GM's excellent list of basic info??

    Cheers!

    i spoke to someone in the morning. super unhelpful and was told that they are not a legal service. (my query wasn't about legal advice)

    i'm 100% sure my s21 was valid. i spent too much time reasearching and educating myself.
    but... what's a 'pi'?

    'dwelling house' i have no problem with
    'dwellinghouse' i have a problem with - this is what threw me and hence i asked for advice

    get one tick wrong or miss a word and your form will be thrown out of court and the judge won't even read your case - heck, that's pretty harsh (i understand why it's necessary)

    but in the same vain, i think the form itself needs to be watertight without a single mistake. a silly thing like mispelling 'dwellinghouse' and spelling 2 different ways in the same line is unacceptable

    web security warning: i completely understand why u may have thought i was a spammer - but the link is a government website. blame david cameron i say

    Prescribed information: (But as you did all that research you'll know all about it..)

    If not served (and/or you can't prove it was served & tenant says it wasn't) then S21 invalid. May need to be re-served for each (monthly) periodic tenancy which would, if the case, apply to you.

    See...
    http://www.landlordlaw.co.uk/openns/guidance-issued-superstrike-case

    What was the EXACT wording of the expiry date - e.g. "17th September 2013" or "after 17th September 2013"..


    Cheers!
