Dianna Yang in Hackney

The landlord has been a nightmare from start to finish. I have never had to issue legal proceedings before and I’ve rented in London for a decade. After 9+ months of trying to get her to fix a broken door, she finally agreed to do so (although it took several more months to happen) only after I issued a pre action protocol letter. After one year of tenancy the landlord raised rent by 15%, she then tried to raise it by 30% at the end of the next year which was far more than we could afford. When we finally moved out she tried to take most of our deposit because of scuffs on the wall that are wear and tear. She wants her tenants to pay for a full repaint. Worst landlord I’ve ever encountered. Owns another flat in the building, lives abroad tax free, very greedy woman.
