Big mistake but I just want my house back?
Hi, I am a landlord for one property, which was my old house. The tenant is refusing to leave with no rent for nearly a year, and we went to court on the 24th of February under a section 8.
The tenant now says she’s never had a tenancy agreement (expired May 2019) and no I haven’t got a copy…big mistake
Although I have the witness who signed it..,…lot’s of waterworks on her behalf…..the judge has adjourned for a substantive hearing on 14th April….. I just want my house back…..never again….any advice, tips greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks
Sally
