Repair Work Responsibilities in Housing Association and Droylsden Local Authority Residences: Renters or Landlords?
If you reside in social Housing, your rights and responsibilities as an occupant most likely vary from if you lived in personal rented Housing.
One grey area which tenants tend to do not have understanding in is who pays for home repairs and upkeep in social Housing, particularly if the damage is not the occupant’s fault.
Do the repair obligations in housing association and regional authority houses fall to the tenant or the property owner? The response is – it depends.
Sometimes it is clear cut that the tenant is responsible for a repair work, and sometimes it’s apparent that the landlord should pay up, however what takes place when it isn’t so black and white? Or, what happens if a housing association disregards their repair work responsibilities and leaves their tenant living in disrepair?
This guide intends to help you develop if your social Housing landlord is trying to shirk their obligation and what to do about it if they are.
If you reside in social or council Housing and your landlord is refusing to make necessary repair work, we can assist.
