he days of Rigsby,Rising Damp’sbungling bedsitowner, are long gone.

In the past decade more than amillion ordinary Britons havebecome landlords and landladies,and they run the gamut ofbackgrounds and ages.

Over the last decade, as people

save for deposits or decide theysimply don’t want to be tieddown, the number of householdsrenting has also steadily climbed.

Currently one in 10households rent; by 2020 it’sestimated that the figure willgrow to one in five.

So what makes for a smoothrelationship between landlord

and tenant? Your Move looks atseven golden rules.

LEAVE IT TO THEPROFESSIONALS

The odds of a successfullandlord/tenantrelationship are multipliedmany times if you rent or let

through a professional lettingagent. Best option of all is

procuring a lettingagent who is a

member ofAssociation ofResidentsLetting Agents

(ARLA). All itsmembers have

The proportion of people renting is on the up – and so is thenumber of homeowners who let. What makes the perfect landlord

and tenant match? Your Move finds out.

signed up to a robust code ofconduct, which means formalroutes of redress if somethinggoes wrong – bringing inthe propertyombudsmen if needed- and inclusion in aninsurance schemeoffering financialprotection frommisappropriatedmonies. Agents also have arecognised industry qualification.

Leading Liverpool lettingagents like Andrew Louis,Keppie Massie, Venmore, JonesLang LaSalle and CityResidential are all longestablished members of ARLA.Costwise, a letting agentnormally charges between 10 and15 per cent of the rent.

WHAT’S MINEIS MINE

Historicallyone the

biggestcauses ofconflict

betweenlandlord and

tenant stems fromneglect of possessions

belonging to the former.Technology will soonmake this a thing of thepast. The very latestpiece of letting agentkit is a handhelddevice which takes a“before” picture ofevery item described onan inventory, and it canthen detect changes monthsafterwards. Venmore, which actsas letting agent to 2,000properties, has a four-strong teamof dedicated inventory takers whowill photograph and grade thecondition of all parts of theproperty, before, during and aftera tenancy ends.

“This continuity means theyestablish a relationship with thetenant and the landlord and areaware of any changes to theproperty’s condition and can givenotice to the tenant to put theproperty in order,” says Venmorelettings manager Darren Kay. “Itputs the landlord in a strongposition if any disputes comealong later. A good qualityinventory is as important as atenancy agreement.”

TAKING CARETop of the list of new home turn-offs are signs of neglect like loose

wires, ancient cookers andold, sagging sofas – not

just unsightly butpotentiallydangerous.

In response theGovernment has set

down stringent safetystandards that all landlords

must now adhere. Lynsey Smith,lettings manager at Jones LangLaSalle explains: “Legislationrelating to safety in rentedproperties which must beobserved includes the Furniture& Furnishing Regulations andthe Gas Safety & The ElectricalEquipment Regulations. Inaddition any property with a gassupply must be checked annuallyby a Corgi Registered engineer toensure all appliances are safe andin good working order.”

The government also requiresevery property to be equippedwith an Energy PerformanceCertificate before it is let.

THE RIGHTMATCHThe course of true love never did

run smooth, but a tenantbackground check helps

minimise futureproblems. AndrewLouis’s exhaustive,ARLA complianttenant checks

increase the odds of agood match. They

include creditchecks, photoidentification, proof ofprior address andability to pay – usuallyin the form of threewage slips – and areference from a previouslandlord. Where necessary aguarantor is also required in casethe tenant can’t pay.

In return though, the tenantshould get a model landlord. “Wenever go in a property without atleast 48 hours written notice andemergency repairs are carried outwithout having to go to the ownerfirst,” says Louis Anastasiou,director of Andrew Louis. “Inessence we are a stakeholderbetween the landlord andtenant.”

A CIVILPARTNERSHIPHaving landlord andtenantresponsibilities setout in black andwhite detersdisputes and isvital in the case ofa sudden split.A tenancy agreement isa legally binding contractbetween a landlord and tenantthat sets out both the legal andcontractual responsibilities andobligations of the two parties.Most letting agents use a standardtemplate for their short termassured tenancy agreement,checked by a lawyer, which detailsof each tenant and landlord canbe added to. It should bewritten in plainlanguage and be fairand balanced. “Agood contract willleave no room formisinterpretation bytenant or landlord andtherefore prevent disputesin the future,” says Alan Bevan,director of City Residential. “It’s agood idea to include who hasliability for what – for exampleboiler repairs – and the processfor getting repairs done.”

GUARDING THE NEST EGGOnce upon a time a deposit wassomething a landlord could

pocket as a nice littlewindfall when a

tenancy wound up.Not any more.Within 14 days ofthe deposit’sreceipt landlords

are to put it into athird party tenancy

deposit scheme andboth parties must agree to

any portion of it being withheldwhen the tenancy ends. Depositis between one and three monthsrent depending on the value offixtures and fittings. ExplainsSue Taylor of Keppie Massie: “Atthe end of the term the client cango online to request it back and ifeverything of the same standardas when they moved in, they getit returned.”

If the tenant disputes anysum of money to be withheldthe decision is passed to the

tenancy deposit scheme forthird party adjudication, where

the onus is on the agent toprovide evidence of

damage. “To be totally fair,

we visit the propertybefore the tenancyends and give them

the chance to get itback to the right

standard,” says Sue. “Theymay have forgotten to clean theoven for example, which wouldcost £50 to get a cleaner in todo, and they may wish to savemoney and do it themselves.”

FOR RICHER FOR POORERThe obvious deal breaker in a

tenancy is if the tenant stopspaying, and if it happens,

being able to amicablyand quickly resolvesuch a problem isvital.

Here, letting agentscome into their own and

can act as arbitrators. “Theimportant thing is to pick anyproblem up early and get to theroot of the problem as quickly aspossible,” says Phil Lawton,director of Sutton Kersh. “Ouragents can assess, realistically, ifthe tenant is going to pay and isstalling for time, or whether theyhave decided they are not to pay.We’ll help both sides come to asolution. If the tenant issuddenly out of work forexample we can liaise with theHousing Benefit department.People in our arrears departmentoften take on the role ofcounsellors.”

After two months of arrearslandlords can serve a HousingAct 1988 Section 21 Notice toQuit. Letting agents ensure theproceedings are watertight.

We wanted to feel at home straight away soit only took me three days to do thedecorating. I’ve kept the colours of the interiorquite simple. I wanted it to look classy, withgold tones and champagne wallpaper in thefront room. I love butterflies as well so they’reeverywhere.

I’m a huge Marilyn Monroefan - I saw this cube in TKMaxx and justhad to buy it.I have noidea whereit’s going orwhat to dowith it, soright nowit’s justornamental.

Taylor Wimpey werereally great and helpful,and the shared equity

scheme really made thebuying process smoother

and quicker. This is such agreat area that two of our friendshave recently moved here. Ourneighbours are absolutely lovelyand we just wanted to livesomewhere really fresh and new.This is perfect.

We were always writing little notes toeach other like “I love you” or “takeout the bins” so we really wanted ablackboard in our new house. We gotblackboard paint and painted a squareand now we write on the wall - it’s gettinga bit full though.

“I’m not on Twitter but Ilike to have a nose onFacebook and see whatpeople are doing. Thedanger is you can waste halfyour life on it. Plus, mymum started searching forme on it and you don’tnecessarily want your familyto know everything you doand say, so I restricted whatshe could see. I thinkFacebook probably will goout of fashion, just likeMyspace did, but somethingelse will come along to takeits place.”

YOUR VIEWS ON BIG ISSUES

Facebook’s phenomenal rate of growth has slowedwhile a flock of high profile users like Ricky Gervaishave deserted Twitter.

“In my opinion socialnetworking is a great way ofcommunicating not just withfriends and family but also tokeep updated with currentaffairs. I enjoy using bothFacebook and Twitter however itdoes have its bad points, if usedmaliciously then it can causetrouble especially amongstyoung people. Social networkingdefinitely has a place in futuresociety and I can only see itbecoming more and morepopular.”

Gary WalshPriest at the Blessed SacramentShrine, Liverpool

“I use Twitter, Blogspot andLinkedIn for work and Facebookfor my personal life. I think youhave to be careful on it. It’s aconcern when they make securitychanges without telling people,that you then have to opt out of,like face recognition and taggingon Facebook. You have to makesure your privacy is maintained.Then you get the keyboardwarriors – people confident on ascreen but not in real life. As amusician I have to use socialmedia. Twitter updates can be abit of a pain to do but they’re anecessary evil. I think in futurepeople will be a lot morediscriminating about what theyuse each site for. You have to findyour own balance.”

Christopher Sullivanmusician, Neston

“I’m on nothing, quite deliberately.I don’t even like texting. If I want tospeak to someone I’ll pick up thephone or talk to someone face toface. I don’t really see the point ofTwitter. I think people managedwell enough without it. Forexample, when I had a baby I didn’teven have a phone in the house –my daughter finds that incredible.Plus, I like to keep my private lifeprivate. As a teacher, I don’t thinkit’s appropriate for pictures ofSaturday night to go up onFacebook. I think it encouragesgossip too, especially among younggirls. I think it will die a deatheventually. I hope so anyway.”

Shirley McLaughlinteacher, Liverpool

“I use Twitter mainly to readwhat celebrities are doing andsaying. I’m on Facebook, but Idon’t put much on it, I just liketo see what people are up to.Does that make me a stalker?Everything on my Facebook pageis private. People don’t realisethat everything you put onTwitter or Facebook otherwisecan come up on a Google searchof your name even years later,and it is quite routine foremployers to do that now. So youreally have to make sure youmanage the security settings.Saying that, I definitely think it’shere to stay.”

The opening of the Museum of Liverpool is this year’s most hotly anticipated event - and after 10years in the making the world’s only museum telling the story of one city is finally to open on July

22. The mastermind behind the museum, bringing all the strands of the city together, is JanetDugdale, director of the museum. With a job that involves interpreting the stories of Liverpool fromthe cotton industry to sport, to its rich musical heritage, Janet reveals what exactly lies behind the

sweeping walls of this unique geometrical building. It could only happen in Liverpool.

hat is the new Museum ofLiverpool?It’s the first national museum,probably in the world, to tell thestory of one city. Liverpool has a

huge story to tell. It’s not like any other cityin Britain. The Liverpool story works on somany layers, and the people of the citymake a huge difference to how the city hasseen itself, so we felt it was very importantto have city museum that explains whatLiverpool is all about. What will the museum include?There are four big galleries that tell thestory of Liverpool as a global city. TheGreat Port gallery tells the story of the portand the People’s Republic gallery is aboutthe social history of the city. WondrousPlace looks at all the entertainers, the sportpeople and we have some permanent storiesparticularly about how people came to thecity, about how it’s been linked to placesacross the world. We also feature sport andfootball and music on a permanent basis.Within all the galleries we have specialexhibitions and smaller in focus displays. The museum is opening officially in

July, but not in its entirety. What othersections will eventually open?On the ground floor we’re opening ourGlobal City gallery and our LittleLiverpool gallery which is aimed at ayounger visitors. We’re also opening oursecond floor galleries with the People’sRepublic and Wondrous Place, which havethe fantastic views across the Mersey andout onto the city. Then in winter, we’reopening up the first floor of the museumwhich has a history and archaeologyinteractive gallery called HistoryDetectives. We will also open The GreatPort and Liverpool Overhead RailwayGallery. However, there’s a huge amount tosee when it opens in July.The museum has actually gone past itsdeadline for opening, what were thehurdles it faced?It has been years in the making and as withany big project there were quite a fewhurdles in terms of funding and permissions.But at the same time there’s a huge amountgone into creating a fantastic building forNational Museums Liverpool and also forLiverpool in the long term. When we arefully open we will have almost 6,000 objectson display with 70 films and interactivetouch screens, so there’s a lot of content.For me the biggest challenge creatively hasalways been how to manage to delivereverything that we wanted to deliverbecause our ambition has always been high.

Creating a museum is like writing many,many novels and directing a number offilms, but then you’ve got the wholechallenge of three-dimensional objects andwhere to put them and how they fit with thestories. It is a very creative process dealingwith many different types of media.What is your favourite piece in themuseum? I have a new favourite thing every week. I’mreally proud of what we’ve done with ourfootball film which is called Kicking andScreaming; that’s shown in quite animmersive environment and I’m lookingforward to people engaging with that. To me,the museum is not complete until we’ve gotvisitors visiting and using the museum.We’ve also done a number of things forchildren, so I’m really looking forward tochildren using the gallery and engaging withour interactive spider Winnie. How is the community becominginvolved in the museum?One of my real hopes for the museum isour really strong collection of Liverpoolvoices, where we’ve collected the public’sstories and I think that brings anotherdimension to what we’re doing. We have apost-box from Fazarkerley Children’sHome on display and we’re asking peopleto post their memories of childhood andgrowing up. Linked to that we’ve workedon a film about growing up and growingolder in Liverpool.

We live in a Victorian property and weare looking for some advice on windowtreatments for our bathroom downstairs.The main problem we have is that thewindow overlooks the garden. In thesummer months we have to have thecurtains drawn all the time, blockingany natural light out of the room. Wehave considered the option of blinds,however we still believe they would haveto be closed. Do you have any advicehow we could obscure this window?

INTERIOR DESIGN

With over ten years’ experience in the interior designbusiness, Sharon Armor is poised to answer all your designqueries from DIY disasters to decorating dilemmas.

Purlfrost has designed a range of vinylstickers for windows that could be theperfect solution for you. The companyhas lots of off-the-shelf designs and Ijust love the Flutterby stained glassdesign by Christin YU. Thismesmerising pattern is composed ofpictures of butterflies and mimics theintricate look of Victorian stained glass.I think it would be in perfect keepingwith your property and would allow thenatural light to flood into the bathroom.

Our master bedroom overlooks some fantasticviews of Sefton Park. I love looking out of thewindow and watching the world go by. I havealways dreamed of having a balcony up there toenjoy summer mornings and evenings, andreally would like to know if you think this could be a possibility? If it iswhat kind of balcony would we be able to have, and would we need planning permission?

Adding a balcony to an existing building can be a great way of adding light to a room andcreating outdoor space. Careful planning and consideration is needed before you commit tothe project. The first issue would be to investigate whether by adding the balcony you will beblocking light from any of the rooms downstairs in your property. Secondly I would contactthe local planning office as you usually need planning permission for such projects andthirdly I would recommend that you seek the expertise from a structural engineer andexperienced builder. With all the bases covered I think you will be advised to opt for astacked balcony, as these are built on supporting pillars and are easy to add to an existingbuilding. A stacked balcony can be constructed in timber to look like a raised deck, givingyou the option of wrapping the balcony around your home so you can enjoy the wonderfulviews of Sefton Park from various locations.

I am desperately trying to find a wardrobe for mybedroom. I want to invest in a piece of furniture thatis well designed and looks beautiful. The rest of thefurniture in the room is from the 1930s so it’simportant to me that the piece reflects this era. I havelooked at original pieces but they lack the hangingspace that I require. Do you know of contemporarywardrobes that would be of interest to me?

The fantastic company Black and Key have in theircollection the Radial wardrobe designed by KarinVerzariu. This 1930s inspired wardrobe could beperfect for your room. The piece is handcrafted inEngland and is available in a macassar finish and hasmother of pearl inlay, noir feet and the handles areavailable in polished nickel and mother of pearl. Ithink the interior options would give you the perfectcombination for hanging your clothes, you can choosefrom full hanging with shoe racks or double hangingwith three drawers. This piece is really unique andwould look fabulous in your bedroom.

anchesterheavyweight KeyProperties isestablishing itselfwell in Liverpool,

offering local landlordsunrivalled service and propertymanagement incentives.

The letting specialist has officesin Manchester, both in Deansgateand Salford Quays, and hasrecently set up its third office atExchange Flags, in the businessdistrict - and it doesn’t stop there,as it plans to open a new office inLeeds later this year.

I meet with lettings managerNawaz Ali - a driving forcebehind the Liverpool office - atthe newly opened Marco PierreWhite restaurant, sited in theluxury Hotel Indigo, todiscuss how the lettingspecialist is settling intoits new office. In thecool surroundings ofthe restaurant, alreadya hit with businesslunch goers after only amonth of being open, wesit under the watchful gazeof celebrity chef Marco PierreWhite. The affordable butglamorous menu offers up anintriguing selection of dishes.Mindful that we should expect alunch above par we both orderthe Beetroot and Goats Cheese

Salad with Walnut Dressing - aphenomenal tasting salad thatkeeps us cool on this remarkablyhot summer day.

With only three staff currentlyworking at the Liverpool branchof Key Properties, working sevendays a week until 9pm, the fast-paced world of Nawaz contrastsquite well with the tranquilsurroundings of the restaurant.“We moved to Liverpool becauseit’s a sister city to Manchester,”comments Nawaz. “It’s up andcoming, the night life is great, theuniversities are excellent andthere’s so much regenerationgoing on. Because we’re a bigcompany in Manchester we feltLiverpool was a perfect fit for our

expansion - plus, ourlandlords with

properties here keptasking us tomanage theirportfolios.”

Nawaz, whohas been with the

company for sixyears, is keen to

bring extraincentives to landlords,

offering a bespoke service thatensures not only that theirproperty is let but also that theystay with them for a long time.

“We do late night and weekendviewings so we have twice as

many hours to do viewings.We’ve even done viewings onChristmas Day and New Year’sDay. Our management service isattractive in itself, for us to offeradditional promotionalincentives shows how confidentwe are that we can deliver thatservice.”

The lunch just keeps gettingbetter as we move onto themain of SpatchcockChicken, Chipolataswith Bread Sauce,and the Fillet ofSalmon withCreamed Potatoes,with Orange andMixed Pepper Sauce -a dish full of flavoursand an instant hit withNawaz. “Marco’s concept isreally good, really vibrant. I reallylike salmon, I eat it quite a lot andthis is absolutely delicious,” hecomments.

It is their latest promotionthough which is going to be agreat hit with landlords - “If yougive us a property to let and wedon’t let it in two-weeks then wewill give you free management forthree months. We’re confident inour ability to deliver that’s whywere offering the service.”

This service falls on top oftheir current rental guaranteeservice, where Key Properties

offer insurance safeguards to thelandlord, in case the tenantdoesn’t pay.

Finishing off, Nawaz isconfident of the company’s futurein Liverpool. “We’ve got the rightpeople to take the companyforward in the right direction,”he comments. “We’re good at

what we do, whenlandlords come with

us they stay with usfor life as theirproperties arealways let. Theirproperty issafeguarded,they are

regularlyupdated with

maintenance issuesand they only have one

point of contact to avoidmiscommunication.”

A bright future indeed forKey Properties, and a brightfuture for Marco Pierre White’snew restaurant as it delivers amouth-watering menu withoriginal taste and texture, withan attentive waiting staff -exactly what you expect fromthe Hell's Kitchen star.
