Protecting tenants rights!

tenants rightsThere are plenty of forums out there with information on tenants rights. The prominent landlord law blog has been operating for over 10 years providing legal advice, information and documents. It is the brainchild of Tessa Shepperson who is a specialist residential landlord & tenant lawyer and author.

A recent post from Tessa outlines the key assumption of adjudication that stipulates the deposit belongs to the tenant unless the landlord can prove otherwise.

“The tenancy deposit money is yours, so it is up to the landlord to prove that he has a right to claim part or all of it. If he has no tenancy agreement or has failed to do a proper inventory, he will find this almost impossible. However even so, it is best to protect your position by providing the adjudicator with the best evidence you can.”

…we couldn’t agree more! which is why we recommend having a professional quality video inventory.
