Help please - rent arrears, how to get tenant out?
Comments
-
Well, update is that the tenant has (via the Hosuing Centre) written to my brother to fully retract the allegation of damage to items and described it as a 'misunderstanding due to lack of electrical knowledge'. Whatever that is supposed to mean!
I do hope your brother didn't try one of your many suggestions and remove a fuse when he did the inspection?
Atleast you/he have it in writing that she has withdrawn her allegation. He is very lucky that this has been put in writing.
Leave it to the professionals to get her out, legally.0 -
I agree with that. Has bro made the request for direct rental payments from now on?
Yeah, that's been done too - he sure does owe me a night out - and a years supply of aspirin!
She did use to frequently ring him at all hours of day and night to say she'd tripped the elecs or fused them or something so no doubt she knackered something up again... :eek:
He sure didn't remove any fuses when he went round the other day though - he wouldn't have a clue how! (remember - he IS a numpty...!)
Cheers again all0
