Neighbours have told me that the people living in my property have moved out. I met the agent there today and we went and did a management inspection.
From the amount of post still on the floor (including the agents letter notifying them of the inspection) they have been gone a while.
The place was as bad as I imagined it would be, an absolute filthy mess. Rotting food was left on plates at the dining table along with dirty cutlery - you get the picture.
Anyway there was a leak in the conservatory roof and the water was starting to lift the laminate floor. The solicitor working on the eviction suggested that in the absence of getting permission to do the repair work, we could give 24 hours notice and then go in under health and safety grounds. Would a leak be a health and safety issue? I really don't want to be accused of anything but to wait until they are actually evicted by the courts will mean the floor will be ruined - if it's not already. I don't have the first hearing until the second week of January.
