Hi, I know this, but have my reasons for wanting to stay at the moment. I didn't really need advice on finding a new home, I just want a couple more months here as it's inconvenient to move at the moment.The bottom line is that eventually the landlord will get the paperwork right, if not this time then the time after or the time after that.
So you will need to look for a new home.
How much energy, emotion and expense you want to devote to staying in your current home as against searching for a new home is down to you.
The best strategy may be to find your next home and then tell your landlady that you will be prepared to move out on xx date and that would avoid court costs etc
So what I'm looking for is a way to get this thrown off the accelerated process. From what I understand, the paperwork needs to be correct, which it isn't.
Anyhow, I'm going to fill out the defence form today and I'll see how it goes. I may even take some legal advice on the matter, as I'm probably out of my depth.0 -

This will only apply to new tenancies until 2018, and "retaliatory evictions" will not illegal anyway.0
