Just received a letter from the council saying they have been informed that the house I let out is in a state of disrepair and will need to be inspected. The tenants have just recently received an order to vacate using section 21. The tenants signed a form stating they had inspected the property and happy with its condition when they started tenancy.

Any advice most welcome!
