A landlord of ours had the same thing a few months ago.
Somebody in the court looked at one of the dates and thought it was incorrect. The judge realised, but didn't admit anything, and gave the landlord possession.
Go over your paperwork, or give us the details, and we will see if we can spot anything of concern.

maybe you didn't send a copy of the tenancy agreement? Or there is a query on the deposit protection? Maybe there is a fault in the section 21 notice?
I strongly suggest you attend - though appointing a barrister may be more viable - as to what you say, that depends on what the judge wants to know.
When I travel to my distant property I lose at least 2 days and have at least one nights hotel to pay for. A barrister should cost iro £250+vat.

Problems obtaining accelerated possession order
Can anyone help me. I am new to rentals and my first 6 month tenancy has gone badly wrong. I did use a letting agency to deal with all this for me, as I live 200 miles away from my property that I am renting out.
Basically, the tenant has not been paying full rent and had stopped anyone from entering the property for inspections.
Section 21 issued just before end of the 6 month tenancy.
All paperwork done, sent to the court. No defence returned, so paperwork went up to judge.
Today I have received notification that the Judge wants a hearing. I thought Accelerated Possession Order with no defence was a formality? Does anyone know why a hearing would take place and do I have to attend and say anything? Comments would be very much appreciated.
Thank youTags: None

by AndrewDodHere is another bit of pending legislation/government spittle that has been ill thought through.
My kid has a tenancy which includes Council Tax and Energy as part of the rent. Her rent has gone up a lot as a result of increased cost of these inclusions.
Now after the fact...-

Thanks. But who would I sell to? I am unable to benefit from keeping the property any prospective buyer would have the same thoughts.

Is there any information you can point me to that deals with this topic? It is unlikely that I will be able to get my properties up to a Band C in time for 2028 and I have sitting tenants who are, by law, entitled to stay put in their properties and can't just be evicted because they have a right to...

by Tony-EdwardsI believe that under a shared-facility HMO situation, Council Tax is levied on the whole property.
I'm thinking of buying a Section 257 HMO (a building converted to 4 self-contained studios that doesn't meet the relevant building standards).
I'm being told it is paying 1 council...-

Reply to Access to neighbouring property act.by jpkeatesMy guess is that the issue is a) removing the dead ivy and b) fixing the damaged brickwork.
Ivy is relatively easy to kill, but it usually stays in place when it's dead.
It usually turns brown, which isn't that unattractive (to me), but it doesn't move.
And if the reason...-

Reply to Access to neighbouring property act.I don’t understand why this is even an issue, let alone spending costs on solicitor fee’s and contemplating courts orders.
As I understand it the OP owns the ivy and he owns the wall it is growing up. The OP has a 500 mm pathway to gain access to the ivy and also has access to his...-
