Can your landlord really kick you out overnight, and what happens if you’ve paid into a property but your name isn’t on it? In this episode of Get Legally Speaking, Hatti Suvari is joined by leading property barrister David Sawtell to uncover what the law actually says, and what people often get wrong. They break down your rights as a tenant, including whether immediate eviction is a myth, what you can do when landlords ignore essential repairs, and where people unknowingly lose their legal position. The conversation also explores buying property with a partner, how to protect your financial interest if you’re not on the mortgage, and why failing to put the right structures in place can be a costly mistake. They also touch on boundary and neighbour disputes, and how quickly these issues can escalate. If you’re renting, buying, or dealing with property in any way, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to understand your rights and avoid common — and expensive — pitfalls.#propertylaw #landlord #tenant #eviction #trustlaw #holdingapropertyintrust #propertyrepairs #legalrights #barristersadvice #boundarydisputes #neighbourdisputes #legallearning #getlegallyspeaking Hosted on Acast.
