tenant

A tenant farmer is one who resides on land owned by a landlord. Tenant farming is an agricultural production system in which landowners contribute their land and often a measure of operating capital and management, while tenant farmers contribute their labor along with at times varying amounts of capital and management. Depending on the contract, tenants can make payments to the owner either of a fixed portion of the product, in cash or in a combination. The rights the tenant has over the land, the form, and measures of payment varies across systems (geographically and chronologically). In some systems, the tenant could be evicted at whim (tenancy at will); in others, the landowner and tenant sign a contract for a fixed number of years (tenancy for years or indenture). In most developed countries today, at least some restrictions are placed on the rights of landlords to evict tenants under normal circumstances.

    Can a council tenant have any say in where a new boiler is situated?

    The council are offering to update the fire and inefficient old radiators and replace the old fashioned boiler with a new combi one. They want to move the boiler from the tank cupboard in the bedroom to the much bigger walk-in wardrobe, presumably for convenience as there seems to be a gas pipe...

    Hi, posting here in the hope someone can help me. Just moved into a 1950s detached rental and really don't like the look of the back of the boiler re. asbestos.

    Why you should always make sure you use a GSR engineer

    Customer said she didn't feel too good when she used her fire and wanted it checked over. I went up and had a look and found this had been installed without a vent. And far too close to the floor. Shoddy and potentially dangerous work from a cowboy.
