As the S21 looks valid, then the ex-wife needs to pay her rent and sit tight beyond the end of January.

If the LL is selling, and she is co-operating with viewings, then it is unlikely he will be exchanging for a while, so time is on her side.

If she is worried about illegal eviction, then it might be worth changing the locks on the door, then changing them back at the end. She would then have to be present for any viewings to open the door if she didn't want them to have a key.

ok thanks all locks already changed on front door rear is via a locked gate and door as well..

What you need to do(if you haven't already)is write(and get proof of posting)to the agent and landlord stating the date you will be moving out.

The day after your fixed term expires, you then serve a "Notice To Quit".

That way, if the landlord precedes with the possession order, you have a reason to ask the judge to not get the costs(£280)of the order against you.

ok so we need to just send a letter to agent stating our move out date which is 30 march 2015 giving them notice to quit on that date(the new build will be done by then its on final fix now our estimated date of move in from builders is 8 march but we wanted a little leaway in case it goes a week later)

In post 35, you have identified the landlord. He has a very unusual name.

Presumably, he now knows every detail of your plans.

ok thanks for clearing that up..

well yesterday(13/01)agents now agreed to a new move out date of 30 march which will now be ok,they didnt really want court action either and we are getting a new contract to that time along with the original sec 21 being revoked and a new one being issued to 30 march..
So many thanks for all who gave advice..

thesaint

You can't revoke a Sec 21.
Please follow my advice.

jaymidlands

ok that was what agent said they have issued a section 21 for march 30th now which is all she needs before other house is done for her to move into..
yes have looked at your advice as well and will be doing that..
thank you for help as well..
