Does being evicted result in CCJ/ any kind of record?

Thanks jpucng62, I am jumping the gun and just thinking strategically, they have been paying up till now but gut feeling says this may change when demands stop being met. I’ll have a look at MCOL....

Just to reassure you artful yes I have done the NRLA landlords fundamentals recently and I am accredited on their scheme. I’m posting here because up to now I’ve never had to travel the painful road of re gaining possession and there are a myriad of legal routes, or so it appears to me....

I agree. I’d offer £1000 only. See if she takes that....

Thank you artful! So to recap and thanks for bearing with me, I issue S21, it goes to court, I get possession and this automatically results in a CCJ?

theartfullodger Yes I agree, I’m not looking that far into the future ( references) but I take on board your advocating of full and frank references! Presumably if there are months of unpaid rent that constitutes debt?...

Do you know the name of the hairdressers? Could you make an anonymous call to the police or to social services? I’d this a case of exploitation/ modern slavery?...

Is it just me or is this rather disturbing? I know I’ve led a sheltered life in some ways but she’s been paid cash in hand, has no savings and is dependent on someone’s good will for the roof above her head. I just hope someone has been paying her N.I. contributions....

Thanks for all these ideas. Still looking around for a resource that would enable me to look at a property and assess whether it was basically sound albeit requiring a lot of work, or conversely whether it was a right off due to fundamental structural issues which would be cripplingly expensive to rectify....
