Unlike many residential landlords, here in Moregeousland we believe that communal hallways and gardens should be things of beauty. Some landlords may think I'm barking bonkers (and some days Mr M may agree....) but I think it makes for happier, better tenants who stay for longer if everything about the property is fab, not just...
