can i stop eviction from my home?

ihatemyhouse

they cant do it, that is why most evict before they sell, show me the grounds then to evict someone just because you want the house, you have to prove the grounds for evicting, not just because you want to live in the house,

speak to CAB or housing at the council, if you don't believe me

they can not buy a house, then evict you so they can live there, they are buying the house with a sitting tenant, so chances are it will be LL who buys it, if its some one who wants to evict you they will have to try a different route, ie, bribe you to leave

What silly advice, of course they can

What are you talking about? They can issue a s.21 same as any landlord. You have been given some very bad advice.

Fine don't believe me, but my advice to the OP is not to move out if they want to live there as they have no legal grounds to get you out

to the ones who don't believe me, phone up the council CAB and ask them, tell them "you have just bought a house with a sitting tenant and they wont leave so you can live there as that is why you bought the house" you need other reason for them to move out,

he can ask her to leave and try notices, at which point 80% move out as they don't know the law, but you don't have to leave till bailiffs turn up, and to do that the judge has to be happy with the grounds to issue the notice, and I want to live in the house is not grounds to evict some one, if you owned it before and want to live there again, then there is grounds for this,

Your so wrong. They are the new landlord, they issue a s.21 notice and go to court. They do not need to give ANY reason for this.

You're wrong, worse your giving wrong advice.

Anyone reading this ignore this rubbish. Absolutely totally wrong.

to issue a 21 then need to put deposit in a scheme, which need oget off ex LL, then get a new agreement and issue the section 21, but they cant do it to move in themselves, it is a nightmare, as if they dont put the deposit in a scheme within 30 days of taking over, they can be sued

this is why they evict before sales, as it is a lot easier

OK now phone up the CAB and say "you have just bought a house with a tenant on a standard periodic tenancy and they wont leave so you can live there as that is why you bought the house" and then report back.

Your so wrong. And I'll explain why. The tenancy stays the same, no new agreement is required. The deposit is protected and transferred to the new ll. They do not need a new agreement at all.

They evict before sales because it's easier to sell to people, doesn't mean anything like your saying.

And a s.21 requires no reason.

will do Monday when they open,

I got this advice from the council when I use to own a house and had crap tenant, as they threatened me with harressment as I asked him to leave, they give me a book and in it, it stated that you can not buy a house then evict to live there your self

From what I've read you're confusing (colloquial) sitting tenant with a regulated tenant, as the terms are used interchangeably in some places. A regulated tenancy is one that started before 1989, and someone in a regulated tenancy is exceptionally difficult to evict (in some cases it's not possible to evict someone in a regulated tenancy) however a tenant that occupied a house pre-sale and post-sale is not a sitting tenant, even if some people call them that.

You're right that a sitting tenant probably can't be evicted, but the OP is not legally a sitting tenant, it's just that some people call someone in the OPs situation a sitting tenant.
