Revenge eviction
Comments

Pixie5740 sorry improvement order 6 months ago. Section 21 the day I first posted, being Oct 6th.
I still believe it is revenge eviction, and all to do with money. LL stated that we should deal with agent- not interested. So we are obviously not wanted and will move. All repairs before the agent, were paid for and done by ourselves.
We do have money, but can't afford to buy. There are properties to rent, it is finding the right one.

It could be a revenge eviction...who knows. Good luck house hunting. I hope you find a place with a landlord who is willing to carry out repairs without you having to go through the council.
If you can't find anything suitable then contact the council. If you haven't made yourself intentionally homeless (eg you're being evicted via a Section 21) then the council have a duty to house you.0 -
Thank- you all. We are viewing a property today. I have just found out that our council has a scheme, the half rent, half buy. We have the deposit.
Now to lighten the way and hope all posters remain friends please. I leave you with this.
I have NEVER belonged to any forum before this one. I first posted in OS. I thought that OH meant old husband.:D

Is that a shared ownership scheme? They can be good if you can't afford to buy outright but want more security than renting. No more Section 21s :j0

I just came back to tell you all this.
We went to view a property today. The previous tenants had moved out, and the LL had just not long sold it. The new owners were also buy to let.
We were the fourth people to view it. It was me the alerted the agent that the boiler had been removed,and capped off. That property will not be let until a new boiler is put in. How can people miss such a thing?
