Are you living in a property that is not being maintained correctly? Is there damp or mould or electrical faults and hazards? Is the gas boiler not being serviced regularly and by a qualified engineer?
Are your goods being damaged as a result or your loved ones health being affected? Is your landlord ignoring your complaints?
Alternatively, have your tenants stopped paying their rent and are refusing to pay anything further? Do you need to evict them? If so, please contact us.
The Landlord and Tenant Act, 1985
This act governs the responsibilities of both Landlord and Tenant to each other and replaces previous Housing Acts and the Landlord and Tenant Act, 1962.
In brief, it is a Landlord's responsibility to provide a safe, well maintained environment, ie "fit for human habitation", for a tenant/s to live in and it is the Tenant's responsibility to ensure that the Landlord's property is not damaged.
There are also provisions for fairness in terms of service charges, tenant's associations, insurance requirements and making repairs to the property, amongst other items.
Breaches of these responsibilities form part of claims against either party.
We cover:
- Repossession
- Eviction Notice
- Notice to quit
- Illegal Eviction
- Court proceedings
