Rob_A1 Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Dear All, I have a tennant in my house that I am selling. I gave the tennant 3 months notice in writing back in september that ended 27th December 06. The tennant is still in the property. The tennant is my brother-in-laws brother and everytime someone wants to view the house he requests to be there and that I am also there. I have asked if he has found anywhere to live as when I find a buyer they will require a move in date. I comply with his wishes to arrange all the veiwings and also have had to re-arrange the odd viewing as he was unavailable. He wont let me go in my house when he is not there, so I have to comply with his wishes. The reason I have'nt evcited him is because he has kids and yes I am still receiving money from the govt whilst he is there. If things remain difficult i will need to evict the tennant. There was never an agreed tennantcy agreement so I understand that I am required to give 2 months notice. Having already served notice in writing (I gave him 3 months in good faith), do I need to do this again??? giving 2 months notice? or can I serve him with eviction?? To add to this I have already paid £800 as an incentive to move (pay bond) and I will give him a further £1000 when the property is sold. Without going into details I did this as the situation was unbareable and my health is worth more than £1,800. Do I also need to be there when viewings are being arranged?? If I want to get work doen whilst he is there do I just need to give him notice? Your advice is appreciated Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPEL Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Be firm and fair in the re-possession of your property. However, you cannot go in beforehand without his consent as you could be accused of trespass or worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or can I apply for a court order for possession of my property?? If someone wants to buy my house I need to give them a possible move in date.. i.e. 6/8 weeks otherwise they wont want to buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
