Tenant moves his girlfriend in

by Hollywood

My Tenant of 14 months, now on a SPT, has moved his girlfriend in. I'm ok with arrangement, it was mentioned by him when he first moved in but they split and nothing happened until now. He has been a good tenant so far & kindly...

Reply to Tenant moves his girlfriend in

by DPT57

Actually, it turns out I had misunderstood the specific meaning of novation in relation to a tenancy. I was reading the more general meaning of substituting one contract for another. So yes, I can see that its unlikely to be relevant here. However, given that the only means of including the girlfriend...

Reply to Rent arrears recovery from mentally disabled ex-tenant

by nukecad

Having Income Related ESA would 'passport' him to Full Council Tax Relief and LHA Housing Benefit anyway regardless of his MH state.
As he had the SDP included then he had IR ESA.

PS. The double 'E' in 'EESA' means nothing; it's simply a long standing typo on the DWP payments system...

Rent arrears recovery from mentally disabled ex-tenant

by OstridB

Does anyone have experience of recovering rent arrears from my former ex-tenant? Tenant left owing £14,000 with £2,000 of damage. Hasn't been to Court. Tenant abandoned property.
Tenant's representative says Tenant is receiving DWP social security benefits - sent me a rude email saying he...

Yes I am doing inspections. I announce I will be wearing a mask and I do wear one. We haven't got much of it in my area.

by OstridB

Hi, yes he does receive EESA with Severe Disability Premium, as I found a letter dated May 2020, he also gets DLA middle rate for care and lower rate for mobility. The council have also told me that he didn't ever pay any council tax as he was deemed an SMI - Severely Mentally Impaired for the purposes...
