The only person who can tell you to "get out" is a judge, after your LL follows the full legal process to evict you. Based on you description of events so far your LL won't have done that. Not even your LL selling the property is a way to force you to leave. Sit tight for now and keep us updated on what happens next - let us know what notice you are served with, etc. Odds are it may not even be valid.

Best to make a planned move than tarnish ones own reputatation unneccessarily.

Update the LL has had a repossession notice our home is up for auction. We know this from visit from some gentleman from a company that works for the bank.

The LL is now uncontactable not answering at all. We think he has done a runner. So we have not paid this months rent and will not pay until we get some answers.

we don’t know how long we have to find another place but we are going to dig our heels in and not leave until we are literally thrown out and even then they will have to break the door down.

once details of the auction are released we may even bid ourselves just to delay things somewhat. We haven’t got any money to buy it

A bit late now, but you've got nothing to lose contacting the bank trying to repossess it, they may settle for a lot less than you think in order to get rid of it, especially since they'll need to evict you first which is time consuming and expensive.

In what way would the tenant's reputation be damaged? The new owner will be inheriting a sitting tenant, which they knew when purchasing, and if they want the tenancy to end will have to follow due process (which will take some time in any case)

If you force a landlord to go to court and get a possession order followed by bailiffs to evict you, rather than moving out earlier in the process, can't you see how that might damage your reputation as a tenant?

Seems pretty clear to me.

A tenant does have the complete legal right to sit there until a judge sends the lads round to forcibly end your tenancy, that's not in question, but there are potential consequences for pushing it that far that need to be understood.

You misunderstand me. By ‘due process’ I meant the new landlord needing to issue a S21 rather than having to take court action

The post you were replying to was talking about someone following the legal process to completion resulting in an eviction, forcing the tenant to leave.

Nothing wrong with a sitting tenant transfer as you suggest.

I think people seem to be missing the point here.
The Landlord no longer owns the property.

The bank does.

The bank isn't caring about people being given references. I think that went out a couple of pages back.

I love me an argument about nothing.
