Reply to accelerated possession section 8

by jpkeates

Reply to Tenancy inspection - more than one inspector?

by ash72

Many thanks all for your reply. Yeah there is nothing on the market at all really, nightmare.

I assume they wish to serve me with a S21 immediately as they gave me 7 days to respond which would tie in with S21 being served two months before my tenancy even ends.
