Does anyone here have any experience of guardianship tenancies? That's where you live as a private residential tenant in a commercial or vacated property to act as it's guardian.

Just looking at this as a possiblity for a potential upcoming move and wondering if anyone has any advice?

I've done it through Camelot for about a year in a council block in Streatham. The cheap rent is good; the fact that they can come round to your house and let themselves in at any time is marginally annoying; being given a week's notice to leave was pretty horrendous. They're supposed to give a minimum of four weeks' notice but when I did it there was some sneaky clause about them being able to change the contract at any time, or something ridiculous.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
