Reply to Can I give SECTION 21 now during Lockdown?

by theartfullodger

You can give s21 any time you like. Question is, is it valid?

Google "nearly legal section 21".

But correct notice for arrears is s8. Serve that also. Presumably no reference or only a full, honest one?

Also explain intentionally homeless.

Can I give SECTION 21 now during Lockdown?

by Mavis808

Tenant says they can't pay rent due to COVID however they have been late with their payments for years and feel they are just taking advantage, already given 1 month free rent during last lockdown and never increased the rent knowing we could get £100 more per month.

by Berlingogirl

Thanks for getting this into perspective, jpkeates.

A creditor can't pursue the debtor for the debt up to the date they went for help. After the asking for help point has been reached the advisor will go through their finances with them to determine whether they can continue to pay the...

Reply to Can I give SECTION 21 now during Lockdown?

by Berlingogirl

Yes you can, but you need to give 6 months notice. I'd also start a money claim online (MCOL) by following the correct protocol.

I would also ask for any housing benefit or UC/HE to be paid direct to you....

Reply to I'm convinced that my tenant is dead - but how do I prove it?

by Berlingogirl

This happened nearly 2 years ago, before the pandemic. Mum was living by herself and was independent until she slipped over at the top of the stairs, didn't hurt herself but couldn't get up. I had to call the paramedics and they took her to the local hospital where she went down hill very rapidly....

I'm convinced that my tenant is dead - but how do I prove it?

by tired old chap

I know it sounds like the title of a farcical 'comedy' from the 1960s, but it's not. I have (had?) an elderly lady tenant. I haven't seen her for months. Whenever I go to the house to inspect/carry out a repair she's not there, but her son and his family are! It's like they live there. At first they...

I don't know for certain she is dead. Also if she is then I'd imagine they'd want to run it by next of kin before releasing info....

Reply to Break clause - Wording Interpretation

by jpkeates

I read that as meaning you can serve notice anytime up to 14th of May, to leave on 14th June.

Notice doesn't really take effect, it expires, but I can't imagine what else is meant by the wording.
