Having Problems With Your Rent Payments?

As soon as you know you might be getting into arrears – contact your landlord or agent, and let them know that you are having difficulties!
Write a letter, and explain why you are having problems paying the rent. Ask if you can have more time to pay. Or whether you could pay a smaller amount of rent for a certain period of time.
Don’t wait until arrears build up – contact your landlord as soon as you start having difficulties.
Last week Sutton Estates put up signs “rent dodger lives here” outside those tenants’ homes who were not paying rent. The National Landlords Association condemned the shaming, comparing the method with medieval witch-hunting. See the BBC video HERE.
