Big mistake but I just want my house back?

I have several txt messages from tenant asking me to give her an eviction notice….all of which I’ve printed out. I may be able to track ex through the power’s of ‘Facebook’….money incentive sounds feasible as I do know they parted on not good terms shall we say ! Sounds like I’m going to be very busy but worth it ultimately…..the Eviction company will have to up their game I’m thinking…her defense has to be shown by 24th March so that will be interesting…..thank you so much for this…….

It’d be interesting to see just what their angle is. It could simply be about buying some time by making you have to come back to court while she lives rent free! I really hope there’s nothing more sinister than that and you get your property back with no further delays. I really feel for you.

moreover hearings these days are heard by circuit judges – bloody useless. They don’t like making decisions and if the defence can ping anything in front of them that says there is a tiny issue of something MAY be legally missing (and AST in this case)the judges tend to refer. Then what happens…you get another hearing and another circuit judge…and so it continues.
I self defended a disrepair claim (which defence threw in AFTER i retracted the possession after full arrears paid). That ended last Dec 2020…it started in Nov 2018! There was just me. They had three defence solicitors and they even got a barrister on the case in the end (all on LA of course total bill over £33k). I won – walked and told the Barrister to FO an the way out.

Anyway going off the point there – what I meant to say was unless you/your legal side hit firm and hard first off, you will inevitably be playing a seemingly never ending game of tennis. Most tenants are on LA these days and as a result the ambulance chasing solicitors that pick up these cases have nothing to loose. All they do is ramp up the costs purposefully.

The tenant obviously thinks by your eviction notices the LA will rehouse her. Hopefully they won’t

I do question why she has requested several Eviction notice’s from me ….but claim’s there to be no tenancy agreement… surely just go ??

She’s not only wanting to housed by the LA but also money from you if by not having any tenancy. If she is saying she is not your tenant then could she be a trespasser? If so wait till she goes out, put her stuff in HGG street and change the locks lol. But that might cause you bigger problems but ……….

Oh believe me …I would do that but she has 2 kid’s there….unlike her, I do have a conscious…..if I’d been a bit tougher in the first place, we may not even be where we are now ?
