Yes I am new to this as my late husband used to deal with it.  With regard to the "lots of things" she has removed all the carpets, removed doors, did not get my permission when she got a dog (not to mention the 18 cats but the AST did not mention a limit on how many animals but surely a court would rule that 18 is excessive?), not kept the property in a clean state and condition.  The bathroom is a particular disgrace. I have photographs now.  But as I said I just wanted clarification on the "periodic" tenancy.  I will read your links.  Many thanks.

Sorry to hear about your loss.

Who was named as landlord on the original AST please?  And who is registered as owner on land registry deeds please? (You don't have to own a place to be landlord).

If hubby was named as landlord you need to have served notice(s) compliant with s48 & s3 to be fully landlord (no rent due if s48 not done, possible fines & criminal record if not s3).

Good luck, tough circumstances for you.

I am named as Landlord and property is in my sole name. No mortgage. Thanks for your comments.
