Evasive tenant gone AWOL
I have a tenant who has left the flat without giving notice and has moved into another house in the area. This tenant has stopped paying rent and has stopped responding to phonecalls, texts etc.
I went to the property the other day to issue her with a Section 21 to end the tenancy and saw that she had changed the locks. Obviously I want to end her tenancy legally but as I have no way of contacting her and she clearly will not pick up the Section 21, which has been delivered under her door.
I would like to know what my best course of action is for such a situation.
Many thanks in advance
Alun

Dear all
Thank you very much for all of your advice and assistance in this matter. I’ll keep you posted about how it resolves after I have been in to see the flat.
Thanks again,
Alun
