Landlords in West Kent are fed up with bad tenants

Landlord Committees, that's a good idea even if is an 'underground network'. I have income protection so that should cover me for some of my income, so why can't they do that, nah, they want spend it on their car or holiday etc! I was a tenant, I paid my rent and kept it tidy.

In the states, we have in places landlord committies. Granted I doubt it is legal, but they stick in a group and notify one another of black listed tenants, as you describe. I personally don't see how hard it is to clean and pay rent. I will say, I've had my problems with landlords hiring idiots for repairs, I had *gallons* of water leaking through my ceiling and into the living room. Her mistake, but did she pay for the damages? Nope, lol. So I guess we take the good with the bad, ya?
