Hi can a landlord legally evict you for disclosing a recent conviction in line with your tenancy agreement for a historical offence that happened when you were 14.

Hi

I was asked this and on investigating it was because of a clause in their buildings insurance policy and so they sometimes have to disclose. It happened to me when I purchased a flat as was in the leasehold agreement. In this case the clause is just being passed down.

We all know what insurance companies are like.
