how much rent do you owe

Are you up to date on your rent?

Landlord here comes when it suites him 4 months since he was last here.

Only wants cash in hand.

Direct debit is how its done. Only people up to no good deal in cash.

AdMMM

I just transfer in the first week of every month.

Cash only would raise alarm bells for me!

Thank you. I have said it from day one I don't trust the guy.
Bro use to pay him through bank but he has since stopped him from doing it.
Same landlord.

Do you have a rent book? Lease? Prtb registration letter? Sounds like a dodgy landlord.

I owe 230 which will be paid on Tuesday!
I like to pay in the agency's office. If the money isn't in the bank account on time for a direct debit, I'll be charged 12.50 by the bank.
It also just works out handier for me! Indpont like keeping money in my account, because I'm a ****er for letting it go in to overdraft!

He seems to be cash only person. It would say it is to do with tax

Not a thing. Not even a thing to say the rate of insulation in the house. They are cold houses

You really have to get a rent book.
If you need a hand with anything, get on to your local Citizens Information

A week late and my landlord sends me texts with the urgency of someone who were they not to get the money within 48 hours, the bank would take their house and two of their children would starve to death.

Not being smart, but good luck getting you deposit back when you move iut. Cowboy landlords don't tend to give them back.

OP doesn't matter how you pay get receipts,get rent book,pay through bank,ask for something from landlord if only in cash

You start the weirdest threads.

not to sound funny, but if my Landlord hadnt arrived in four months, I'd be sorely tempted to up sticks and leave.

Renting is dead wasted money, enjoy paying someone else's mortgage for a house which you will never own.

Leave the country?

relax carry on

Only accepting cash can be an be an indicator of a non compliant landlord tax wise. It can also indicate a landlord in difficulty with his lender where he is basically attempting to hide money from the bank.
It could also be nothing but it's probably one or both of the above.

Yeah, if you know when you're moving out I'd try avoid paying the last month's rent just to be safe.

Plenty landlords only take cash, probably doesn't have it registered as a rental property.

That attitude got some people to pay €250k for a small semi-detached house in Offaly

Chattastrophe!

I don't owe any, in fact I just paid it today a week early!

Rent is one thing I'd never ever let myself fall behind with.

I would never deal in cash with a landlord. Our current landlord tried to insist on it, but I refused. It's essential to have an indisputable record of all payments made. Even if you were given a receipt for a cash payment, they could easily claim you forged the receipt and never paid them. No chance of claiming that when you pay by bank transfer or standing order.

Would be suspicisous of this too. Heard it is really common with the pre 1963 conversions.

Not at all.
You should get this sorted out though.
Go to Citizens information.
Theres a sticky at the top of the page, I think their details are there.

Sorry if it has come across as that, not my intentions

My last landlady was only accepting cash in hand, turns out she didn't have house declared to revenue but has since been found out, I don't know what the repercussions were but I'd imagine they were hefty, I'd get out of that lease op.
