This discussion concerns a tenant's long-standing issue with a landlord refusing rent for over eight years. The landlord is now demanding a significant transfer fee to change the name on the lease, despite the tenant having occupied the property for over 15 years and paid rent previously. The property has been acquired by a new landlord, who has not communicated the change. The tenant is being pressured to transfer the property into their name, which is problematic as Pagdi tenancies have a 21-year limit requiring court permission for extensions. The advice suggests approaching the court to deposit rent, citing the landlord's refusal to accept it.
