I have read that it is possible to serve a 146 notice for a breach of lease if the tenant has admitted the breach as opposed to going through the LVT.
What exactly is classed as an admittance? For example, is offering to rectify the breach an admittance that there is a breach in the first place?
To cut a very long story short, damage has been caused to my property from the flat above due to lack of maintenance and poor repair, although the current owner has agreed to pay for repairs to my property, there is now a dispute as to the extent of the damage and he wants to cut as many corners as possible to keep the costs down, rather than repair the damage to a high standard, he is also dragging his feet to actually get anything done.
Can I serve the notice without going through the LVT?
