Is a sprint past 29p on the cards for tomorrow?

There's a bigger issue, I think - if you only have one rental property you might be the one who gets the really bad tenant, and I don't mean someone who leaves a gate open to be ruined. The worst tenants can completely trash the place as well as leaving rent unpaid for months and months. For those relying on rental income to cover a mortgage it can mean ruin.

I don't know how you can be bothered to be honest. The return on investment is not that great yet the ball-ache factor with tenants is high. Too much hassle for me.

Douglas Hunter6 Aug 2020 2:11PM@Adam Webb I would much rather have Keir Starmer than Boris as PM.  As for taking a knee he did it to show solidarity and didn't make a meal out of it - as long as we all start from a position of respect for each other that's the main thing.John Hayden6 Aug 2020 2:24PM@DHIs that the same Starmer who was head of the DPP when the CPS, Police and local authorities looked the other way while the grooming gangs were raping white girls?And got Knighted for his efforts...

"If BOE raised interest rates would mean us savers would have far more money paid to us in interest on our savings which would mean we spend far more money into the economy."

Hang around for a couple of years and you'll have all the interest hikes you could wish for.

We had a very large fleet of cars covering the whole spectrum. Difficult to imagine how some were returned. We had to add a rule that individuals could be charged with repairs and cleaning if unreasonable damage.

I think there's a TV programme about bad landlords and bad tenants - any reasonable person would agree that you get both.

#937. Exactly.

loganair - my only rental issues have been in London; serial problems, fraudsters, repainting the property black inside, moving in pregnant girl friend and the tenant doing a runner, etc. A learning experience!
Rented out my house in CHland for around 20 years. Really no issues when I took it back. Excellent condition.

(Apologies M2 that I have a few BTL's, none in the UK). ;)

M2 - Latest position btw bullish £/€ on the basis of a deal in the next few months. Done at 1.10 spot.

So Min, you let your daughter rent a property? With all your wealth why not help her out?
After all, you HATE landlords.


PS: Bet he comes back with a made up reason.

If all government props are removed including the 'right to buy' would mean a fall in house prices.

In Britain the government is all about keeping house prices as high as possible so people feel better off and therefore consume more.

In the USA the government is all about keeping the stock market as high as possible so their people feel better off and therefore consume more.

[hellscream] 06/8/2020 13:17

remove ALL government props in the housing market, and let the free market do its job. all landlords are scared of this for some reason. goodluck for a first time buyer getting a £60.000 deposit.

[grahamite2] 06/8/2020 12:48

Arguing from the particular to the general is a logical fallacy, Minerve. Citing a crooked businessman and a crooked landlord proves nothing about the system.

When I was living overseas I rented my house out under full management through an agent.

Tenets didn't lock the gate to garden, windy day gate was blown off and needed replacing and I was charged for the replacement. Just two months later the tenants still not locking the gate, just putting it on the latch because they are are lazy, another windy day, 2 month old gate blown off again and for the second time in two months as the land lord I had to pay for a replacement gate.

Everybody I know who has rented out a property have had similar problems with their tenants and they all say they would never rent out again.

On the whole tenants treat rented property without any respect and because the property is not theirs they do not care what damage or how they treat the property they're renting.

These tenants need controlling like dogs........mind you a dog would treat a rented property far better then their human owners ever do.

Alphorn

Well done on your Cable (assume its cable) position so far. It seems to be paying off. I'd rather have your position than throw it into gold - the current herd bubble.
