Reply to If tenants stay after Section 21 expires, can they just leave at any time?

by DPT57

I think that the key issue is that its so difficult/time consuming/costly to evict a tenant these days that you would be mad to quibble if they just leave....

If tenants stay after Section 21 expires, can they just leave at any time?

by freddycd15

Hello all,

The tenant is on a Statutory Periodic Tenancy. If a valid Section 21 notice has been served and the date to leave expires but the tenant is still in the flat (given no court order or bailiffs are present):

1) Does the Statutory Periodic Tenancy still stand?

Accelerated Possession when tenancy agreement has expired

by Dylan2022

Hello everyone,

I am terribly worried. I was hoping you could help me.

I have given my tenant notice under section 21 because I need the property to live in. The notice period comes to an end in a few days and the tenant has informed me she cannot leave as she has not found...

Reply to Can I serve Section 21 Notice?

by Rubz2009

Final question from me, again appreciate the advise. Can someone explain the difference between grounds 8 and ground 10. My tenant is 3 months overdue on rent so i know ground 8 applies. I will be using ground 11 also for consistent late payments. Does ground 10 apply to me?

Can I serve Section 21 Notice?

Hi was hoping for some advise.
I have tentants in my property on a AST agreement which started in 2013 and has been rolling to date. Tenants are behind on their rent by a couple of months (during covid times which they believe they still do not need to pay) and also always late on monthly payments...

Reply to letting agent or do it yourself?

by blueash

I use an agent (several properties) and pay 8% for "enhanced management" - basically I don't have to do anything apart from approve repairs over £200. I suppose if you had just one property you could cope but I think the agents are worth paying for.

I did have a bad experience...

letting agent or do it yourself?

by BIGGYBIBIG

Hi guys,
Do you guys turn your properties over to letting agents to manage for you?
If so what are we talking in terms of fees around 10%?
Are letting agents trustworthy, i have heard many horror stories?

If you were to do it yourself without using a letting agent

Reply to Police break down door to access tenant

by artin

I had similar 15 years ago, police were after a tenant already left and had new tenants. They broke the back door, they sent their own repairer, changed the door and paint, they paid for everything. It's best to ask police to authorise before doing the works.

Police break down door to access tenant

by VictoriaH

Police broke down my main door to get to a tenant of mine.
Are the police liable for such damage?
Can I send them a bill for fixing/ replacing my door?
What's the normal practice for such damages?
