How do I find the landlord of the property next door

solentsusie

Hello everyone

I am trying to obtain the contact details for the landlord of the property next to mine which has been rented out since it was purchased in December 2015.

The current tenants are a nightmare. I have obtained the property Title number from the land registry which states the names of the owners, which are registered at the address of the rented property with no other contact details or address details present, and that the lender is the NatWest bank.

Any ideas on how I can obtain the actual contact details of the owners of the property who have never lived there but reside somewhere else?

Any help appreciated.

Try writing a letter addressed to name and address as on Land reg. Hope the tenants pass it on.

I would be very surprised if the tenants pass anything on.

If a property is purchased as a rental property surely there must be a way of finding out who actually owns it and where they can be contacted?

Here are some thoughts.


I am presuming all your attempts to address your issues with your neighbours have not proved fruitful and any further attempt at resolving your problems on a common sense face to face basis is pointless. What is the problem, noise, antisocial behaviour? Depending upon the nature of the issues of your grievance the council environmental health department may be able to assist.


In Scotland, all landlords have to be registered with the local authority, so if you are living in that enlightened country, check with the council and provide the address/postcode of the property. Failing that, you could write to the owners at the property address - they might have mail redirection in place. Do you know if there is a managing agent, do you remember it being advertised to let back in December 2015? If so, contact them. Sorry if this is a bit obvious.

What are you expecting the landlord to do about this?

Tracing agents?

You could use a search engine to see who the property was advertised through (agent wise) if it was.

If you find this you may be able to establish whether they manage it on behalf of the LL and therefore you could start there?

I would personally like to make them aware of the problems, they are capable of issuing a Section 21 notice if they decide they want to remove these tenants. The police and environmental health are aware of the issues.

Please don't bother responding if you have nothing valid or constructive to put forward. Thanks.

Is there a 'property history' button on Zoopla house prices? If so, that would tell you who it was marketed by previously. I'd start from there

I don't think it is managed but I do know the name of the estate agent that sold the property, I doubt they will share the contact details with me due to data protection but there is no harm in asking.

Then assuming we are talking criminal and/or antisocial behaviour they are the best people to deal with the issues.
