Take the advice of ' Berlingogirl', you may have one idea of what a vulnerable disabled person looks like and acts........ the reality is a whole lot different. DO NOT DO IT....

Adapting property for disability

by skier3

Slightly unusual situation here .. I've had the same tenant for about 6 years now, with no real issues. Within the last two years she's put on so much weight that she is now saying she cannot get into the bath and is asking for it to be replaced with a large shower instead. She's pretty much made...

Reply to Renting: No-fault evictions to be banned in England

by Hudson01

Every single thing in life is, to a great or lesser degree, centered around somebody wanting something and another person having that ' something', that balance of power has always been there.

The PRS appears to be going down a road where the proverbial ' Tail is starting to wag the Dog'...

Renting: No-fault evictions to be banned in England

by mokka

Landlords are to be prevented from evicting tenants in England without giving a reason, under proposals published in a government White Paper.

The Renters Reform Bill will also end blanket bans on benefit claimants or families with children - and landlords must consider requests to allow...

Reply to FOI request to housing association

by ash72

You could try using a tracing company (depending on how long it's been since the T ran away), I would then get a CCJ against them (it's unlikely they have any assets or are working, but at least you could enforce it in the future).

FOI request to housing association

by Berlingogirl

My tenant (T) did a runner owing rent - bet that's never happened to anyone else!

T got a property with a housing association (HA)

I wrote to the tenant at the address requesting payment within 14 days (2 letters, different PO's with certs) and one letter was returned.

The HA will not disclose that information, only partner agencies (Police/Social services etc) can obtain that information, you could simply knock on a neighbours door and ask if Mr/Mrs So&So lives there, i do it all the time in my job, most people are happy to talk and you learn a great deal from...

Reply to Letters before action no court process

by DPT57

If he didn't immediately tell you that you were trespassing then I think a court would probably find that he accepted your overstay and that a new tenancy began.
