Hi everyone,
I have rented out a room in my home with my landlord's verbal permission (he is a friend). I stated no pets on the ad as my landlord doesn't like dogs and neither do I, plus I have 2 indoor cats which I also stated. A lesbian couple responded, inspected the room and bathroom (which they have use of as I have an ensuite). They told me about the dog and said if there were any issues with him they would take him elsewhere so I agreed. Then they told me about the cat but insisted he lived in their car and wouldn't be a problem, he is also accommodating my outdoor entertaining area along with the dog.
They have been told I am not happy about the dog barking at all hours of the day and night, but he still remains.
Last night, they had a visitor turn up sometime between 12 am and 1.30 am while I was asleep, They woke me around 1.30am with constant talking and doors opening and closing. At 4 am, after getting no sleep, I knocked on their door and confronted them. I was angry as I had to work today and need my sleep.
Cut a long story short, as they only have a verbal agreement with me (Head Tenant) and pay their rent (bills, internet, my household appliances, crockery, cutlery, etc. included) directly to me, how much notice under Property law do I have to give them to vacate my home?
My Landlord is not happy about the situation either but said it was my choice if I want to kick them out and give them a notice to vacate.
