Nearly Legal

Housing Law News and Comment

Nearly Legal is a specialist housing law website for England (and occasionally Wales), run by solicitors and barristers practising in the field.

The site provides information, updates and discussion on housing and landlord & tenant law. Issues covered include homelessness, possession and forfeiture, unlawful eviction, disrepair and housing fitness, regulation and licensing, service and major works charges, right to manage and anything else that interests us. Contents include frequent case reports, updates on statute law, guides and key documents.

It is all free, but it is just our opinions, not legal advice. Please do not ask for advice on individual matters

The epic NL looks at housing/leasehold/homelessness issues across the English parties’ manifestos. Three by J (Tory, Lib Dem and Green), one by me (Labour). No Reform as a) they are not serious, & b) as J put it ‘they are – without exception – comprised of terrible human beings.’
