Non protection of rent deposit
5 agreements
1st one is time barred.
The deposit was returned.
Claimant has given me an offer of 4 months plus costs to accept.
I have made an offer of 3 months plus costs because I believe this is one tenancy he has said no.
One man landlord - no other claims before
The law is not clear on how the judge will say. Other legal advice has said - should only offer 1.5 months to others should accept 4 months.
1. Should I accept the 4 months ( + he got his deposit back) - time runs out in 2 days.
Or stick it out and be prepared to go to court. I made my offer today and was refused.
2. Has anyone an idea of what the extra cost would be from now to going to courts- i am just waiting a hearing date.
Its like bloody poker as far as I can see.
Yes I know what the law says but have been told probably judge would award between 1-3 months but not definite.
How can we have law that basically depends on what the judge migh think that day.
