Indeed: So reserve s8 if any changed grounds, s21 also if you can validly (? can you?) and copy them to guarantor with a calm, polite letter (letter to guarantor only).
-
Go and speak to the guarantor on his/her dooorstep.
Make it clear that you will be getting a money judgement against the tenant and themselves as guarantor.

It will depend on the grounds of the s8.
If they are no longer relevant, you'd be best issuing a new one with correct grounds.

Section 8 Expiration ! ! !
Hi Everyone just a quick question regarding Section 8 Expiration,
I served a Section 8 on a tenant on the 16 Jan 16 at which point they owed £1800.
Since then they have made an effort to reduce their arrears but in Apr/May they fell back into their terrible ways and not even sent enough to pay rent.
I wrote to their guarantor and requested payment of arrears in full or for him to contact me and neither has happened in the specified timeframe.
The tenant did call me and was extremely aggressive and stated we wouldnt be getting the arrears. Whats the next step?
Further information available and this is not a test lolTags: None

I’m a tenant facing a sharp rent increase and in need of advice.
I have a good landlord who agreed to a rent reduction last year because of ongoing maintenance issues and lower market values. However, I can only communicate with them through an agency.
Approaching the end...-

by ash72Are we missing the point here, by passing the legally binding tenancy agreement which stipulates how and where notices, issues etc are meant to be sent to and addressed to, should be enough (otherwise what is the point of it all). If the LL instructs an agent to deal with a T, then that's who the T...

by jpkeatesMy tenants get a nice letter with my name and contact details on it, but I want them to talk to my agent, not me.
I try and make it clear that the details are really only if they have a problem with the agent and need to talk to me....-

by jpkeatesIf you break it down further, it's better for the landlord.
The median time from claim to possession order (which is 60 odd percent of the time, the result) is under 11 weeks (say just under three months), so from that point, possession is pretty much inevitable.
So it's frustrating, but...-

by jpkeatesThe latest government figures for possession claims have been published, which cover January through March 2022.
That's post Covid restrictions and would probably include most of the last of the Covid backlog.
And there's no sign of the massive wave of evictions and resulting mass...-

by ash72Stat's are one thing, reality and being in the middle of trying to get your property back is another, just feel sorry for those LL's who are trying to get back possession even after 27 weeks (7 months) it's a long time!!!

Can't agree more: Such information (landlord, address..) should be available for free, 24/7, not requiring £3 spend.
As in Scotland from the landlord register (I've had prospective tenants telling me they'd checked me out before viewing .. fair enough.)
But in England...-

by jpucng62If the property is now in good condition then you might suggest there should have been a £100 pcm rent rise for the first year - when you got a reduction - and a further £100 pcm this year, so £1700. If market rate is around £1800 then I would think this reasonable.
