Property seemed OK at the start of the tenancy, 56 Washington Terrace, North Shields. Was a bit gloomy and cold but it was in the height of the covid pandemic and any properties were like gold dust, my hands were tied. The landlords were obviously keen to take my 6 months rent up front.
When the first winter came around I realised how damp and badly ventilated the property was, especially the bathroom and kitchen area. Black mould in both areas and fungus growing through cracks in the grout in the bathroom. This was all reported to the landlords at every available juncture and initially they seemed helpful, albeit bodge and budget solutions. When it was still persisting and getting worse, I asked for the core issue to be rectified, they brought their own builder, he said it was a big job to resolve the damp, the landlords okayed the work but then went on holiday to Australia for two months!
When they returned and I'd still been living in these conditions with my children, instead of doing the work they issued a 'revenge' section 21 which gave my little family only two months to leave the property. Disgraceful.
