The law of landlord and tenant has become an increasingly complex area of study for law students. Apart from the double hurdle of mastering both common law principles and statutory codes, various aspects of the subject have become increasingly specialised and challenging. The new edition of Question and Answer Landlord and Tenant demonstrates that even complex problems can be explained in straightforward and inspiring terms. The authors, both experienced academics and barristers, provide detailed answers to typical exam questions in this difficult field. There is also ample guidance on examination technique and how to achieve success in the exam. The third edition of this book has been updated in the new Question and Answer style of questions followed by commentary, bullet points and diagrams and flowcharts. It offers new questions based on the latest recommendations of the Law Commission on renting homes and the abolition of the law of forfeiture. There are new questions on the human rights dimension, the recent changes to Part II of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 and the substantial amendments made to leasehold enfranchisement under the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002. Online Resource Centre The third edition is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre offering further guidance to students. It contains useful web links to external sites and glossary of key terms, essential to any student taking landlord and tenant law courses.
