County court bailiffs

[Perce]

With your tenants or mine it is impossible to predict anything because there is no logic in their behaviour. You can just hope that maybe they would leave before they get a letter from bailiffs....

Bixwier - I think it will take a few months once the ban is lifted not years. And where did you get £8k from ?

It took me 3 months to get a possession order once the courts opened not years as a lot of people were predicting....

My tenant is already asking me to let him stay and postpone bailiffs because he likes my flat. But if I do I will create another tenancy ? At the moment he is not paying anything and has 5 months debt. Tells me he will pay what he owes me if I allow him to stay longer (which is a lie). He knows...

Congratulations on the warrant. It’s good to know. Hope they gave you the ref number of the warrant ?

My estate agent has already tried to renew and when I called them they withdrew the offer of renewal. You have to keep an eye on the estate agent too. I...

They put you in a queue when you call the court. I found out that the best time to call is 9am. Don’t be put off if the first person on the phone refuses to give you information saying that you have a solicitor. Say your solicitor is very slow or call again and another person will pick up the phone...

Slackjawedyokel - the electrician has changed the fuse box and did something to the lights in the bathroom. I think he saw a woman and realised that I had no clue about electricity so charged me whatever he wanted.

I think the courts will tell you about the warrant. They will ask for...

Will do. Just waiting for the ban to be lifted.

Do your EICR by all means. You do not need more problems. I will be selling my property too but I did it. It was very expensive.

I did my EICR before the PO when it was not even required because I knew there would be problems later....

Hello Slackjawedyokel,

I called the court and they informed me that the warrant was issued 2 weeks after I had applied. The court did not inform the solicitor. The guy on the phone said they will inform the solicitors only when there is already an eviction date.

You can...

So if the tenants say covid when would the bailiffs return ?

Thank you all. My tenant is not going to leave. He will be in bed complaining of ill health when they arrive. He is already complaining....

OS7 - I have sent you a private message. I am going the County court route with bailiffs now not the High Court. No clue how long it will take. No warrant yet. More than a month has passed.

Meanwhile my tenant does not reply to the messages from anybody regarding gas safety check....

There will be no evictions for those who enrolled into the breathing space. But what about the others who are not in the breathing space ? Also non eviction ?...

[Perce]

Do you really think there will be no extension to the eviction ban beyond 31st March ? I am not so sure. Maybe June !?...

[Perce]

Slackenedyokel - did you get your warrant ? I am going via County court route now but did not get my warrant yet. I though you get it straightaway when you apply and then wait in the queue ?...

Hello all

How long does it take to get a warrant of possession from the County Court ? I applied in the middle of Jan. Has anybody managed to get it recently ? How long to they take to evict via CC ?

My application to transfer to High Court was rejected....
