Tenancy Issue

Kynthia

Landlord still needs to apply to court for a possession order. However if they have evidence you gave notice they don't need to send a S21 and wait 2 months they can apply immediately.

No they can't, that's why you would pay double rent.

Ll might not know the rules but neither do u, sorry

Which is why I am on here, asking how I can eek out another 2 or so months as I can't move out so quickly now.

LOL! You're quite slow, aren't you?

Duh!

LLs who don't follow gas safety requirements are committing a criminal offence.

I paid a deposit on an AST, as such, by law, it must be protected by a government authorised scheme.

You are right! I don't know all rules/law. I myself am a landlord and make use of a lettings agency, I have all insurance in place, etc. No headache.

Serves me right, though! Am a bit of a WUM - lol. It's all good. Like I asid, the place is fully furnished, I don't have much here. Hopefully, the new role gets sorted soon, can then get the movers in and expense it

Thanks again. A bit more peaceful now.

The relevant part of the Housing Act is here:

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/50/section/5

This seems to say (if I am reading it correctly) that the LL can take tenant to court under Section 5 as the surrender means the tenancy has ended.

However, email of surrender may not be sufficient plus no mention of having to use Section 21??????????????

Unless someone has more expertise about this then a call to Shelter to clarify may be necessary. For your sake a knowledge of what to expect and the time scale would be useful.

LOL, after possession order, LL still can't kick me out. Need bailiff.

With all these thrown in, I think I can get a few weeks extra at least.

Oh, the joys of management consulting, travelling like a vagabond. It's all good

Think u missed the irony of someone not knowing the rules, complaining about someone for not knowing the rules.

Slow? No, in fact as I told u already emails are worthless.

That's where the help comes in, not that your grateful

Duh? Quote the law which makes this a criminal offence? Then go to the police station and report him.

Jesus, ur a landlord?! Heaven help your tenants. Wish I hadn't bothered helping now. Some people deserve what they get.
