PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

£2k is costs and rent arrears.
They also have over £1k rent arrears. £300+ of costs is extra. This would build up and they think they just get away without paying anything - same as their friend. Whereas I want to show that I will pursue it.0 -
understood, but getting judgement and enforcing it are two very different things.
Have you considered just paying them to leave? It may sting, but ultimately be cheaper.
I have tried before and they said no.
I think one of the issues is that they are too comfortable and they know it is tenants' world so perhaps debt enforcement on the other tenant would make them think twice.0 -

It's not a tenants world, sorry but that's simply not true.
In any case I think I'm going to bow out. The simple fact is that whatever enforcement action you take, they wont know about it.0 -
Fair comment and should have said: 'they think'.0
