Landlord in Receivership

    I got a letter a few weeks ago from the receiver appointed to my landlord. We were told that would be paying rent to them from now on, and that we would receive bank details and deeds of appointment within a few weeks. We received another letter a few days ago with the bank details, and we're due to pay our first month's rent to them on 6th October.

    I have been in touch with the receiver by email and phone about various things (deposit, estate agent coming to view, etc) and I did ask once over email when we should expect the deeds and the bank details. He replied that we would receive the bank details the following week, but he did not mention the deeds.

    So with just a few days until our rent is due, I'm wondering should we be in receipt of the deeds before making any payment, or is this necessary?

    My advice is to get on to threshold. They might agree to give the receiver a call on your behalf and straighten it all out.

    Cheers. Just put the phone down after being on hold for half an hour :/ I'll have to see if I have better luck later.

    What do you mean deeds? Do you mean lease?

    No, deeds of appointment.

    I would make the first payment. After that i would deduct an amount equal to the deposit before continuing to pay the rent.

    He told me over the phone that once they gave us notice they would waive our last month's rent in lieu of the deposit, so even though I haven't got that in writing, we're going to do that. We're entitled to 42 days' notice anyway as we've been there over 18 months.
