To file a claim, it's essential to follow specific procedures depending on whether you're renting from a private landlord or a council. Keep records of all communications with your landlord and any attempts you've made to resolve the issue. Document the condition of the property and any repairs that have been neglected.
In some cases, you may be entitled to compensation for damages or losses caused by the disrepair, such as damaged belongings or health issues due to mould. Don’t wait—take action today to claim the compensation you deserve.
Compensation amounts vary based on the specifics of your case. Factors such as the rent you pay, the severity of the disrepair, and how long the issue has gone unresolved are taken into account.
In extreme cases where the property becomes uninhabitable, you could receive up to 100% of your rent as compensation, though this is uncommon. Typically, compensation ranges from 25% to 50% of your rent.
The severity and duration of the disrepair play a critical role in determining compensation, as they directly impact your living conditions. Consulting with a legal professional can help ensure your claim is handled effectively and that you receive the compensation you're entitled to.
