The best thing to do is get the agent to issue an S8 IMMEDIATELY. Phone them NOW and back this up with an email to get the ball rolling and tell them to act on your behalf for now. If the tenant has any sense they'll move.
Once the tenant has gone, auction the property. You'll get a much better price with no tenant.
If the bank auction it with a tenant that doesn't pay rent then you'll lose a lot of money!
Once it is sold, enjoy the equity and start living!1 -
If the bank does that they will take most of your equity in fees leaving you with very little.panda4556 said:

Bit of an exaggeration to say most of the equity given how much equity there is here - evicting the tenant will certainly add to their costs, but then again the OP would have much the same costs if they were doing it themselves. Whoever does it though, I expect it will be a worthwhile "investment" compared with trying to dispose of the property with the tenant in situ.Edi81 said:

It seems your misfortunes have been compounded, not only by having an unreliable tenant, but by a letting agent who don't seem to be doing any work on your behalf!I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

The bank will sell for an amount that guarantees them their money. they will look for a quick sale.
If that is an auction the final pricwewill depend on what bidders there are on the day.
The bank are looking after their own interests, not yours.
Do not expect them to work on your behalf.1 -

You can certainly expect the bank to charge large admin fees for arranging the possession order and evicting the tenant, if that is in fact the route they choose to go down.user1977 said:
