Problem tenants in a rented property.
Someone has recently rented their house out to new tenants in my road, but these tenants are now causing a nuisance in the area. How do I find out who the landlord is or what can be done to remove these people please?

Hi there, working in a letting agents I know how problematic tenants can be! The best way to find out who a landlord is of a property is to carry out a property search on the land registry website. This will list who owns the property and will often also give a correspondence address for them. If there was a To Let board outside the property before the tenants moved in, it will be beneficial to contact the letting agent and ask them if they manage the property on behalf of the landlord. If they do, they will be able to contact the tenants on your behalf in confidence. If you still get no results, there is also a special department at the council called the abatement team who are specifically designed to deal with neighbour complaints. I hope this helps.

To be successful with action via a landlord or letting agent, they will usually require some evidence of the nuisance. It is advisable to speak to the local council so that if any action needs to be taken, there is evidence to substantiate the claim.
