Tracking down a Landlord


Hendrix

Recommended Posts

Evening all


I'm hoping someone can help, we live just off crystal palace road, bought 4 months ago. Our neighbours on the corner are a nightmare, despite asking politely on a number of occasions, parties continue late in to the night, keeping us up a few times a week.


Not to sound too cliche but I've no issue with a good party at the weekend, issue being it's regularly in the garden, backing onto us, until 3-4am most weekends.


Can anyone advise how I track down the owner to make a formal complaint? It's a rented property and despite asking multiple times, nothing has changed.


Its our 1st house and after 9 months of fighting the London property market this is the last thing we need.


Many thanks in advance of any ideas.

Not even ?20 - Title Summary on the new "Basic Service" at the land registry will tell you the owner for ?3. You may get a good owner who deals with it, but your other option would be to contact Southwark noise abatement when it happens on 020 7525 5777, they claim they'll respond within an hour of a complaint.

I know this is a serious issue, and I hope you can resolve it (I too would suggest the Southwark Noise Control route) but I did have to laugh when you said you were "all ears" ....

Thanks for your advice everyone, really helpful, I think I'll try both approaches, Southwark noise police and contacting the landlord, hopefully the last thing the owners want is tenants who are disturbing all their neighbours, although Southwark noise police are helpful you need reported instances building up a noise diary in the middle of the night which is no fun, just wish some people would have more consideration for the people around them, selfish idiots.

    • I had certainly heard that Helen Hayes was planning to stand down from being an MP - although I don't think I've seen that confirmed anywhere that I recall. If so, that is a shame, she was generally very competent and she knew the area well. A very good constituency MP and  had performed reasonably creditably in a minor Front Bench role. A loss to Parliamentary politics, in my view, if she is standing down.
    • We've just bought a previously tenanted flat which has come with a large amount of cutlery and cooking utensils which we'd be happy to give away. 
    • Sadly this means for those of us who live within this ward the brilliant Helen Hayes will no longer represent us (that is if she's standing again). The Labour candidate for Lewisham West and East Dulwich is Ellie Reeves who has been MP for West Lewisham and Penge before the redrawing of boundaries.  She is sister to Rachel Reeves.
    • Highly recommend Kam Thompson (of Bascoe & Reid) for all your painting and decorating needs.  We've had him back many times and he has now painted our whole house to a fantastic standard. He is also great to have around. His number is 07949507412
