axil23 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Got a T that has been there for over 10 years but I just took over the property a year back. He pays 50% of what the rent should be. He is a nice guy so I really don't want to get him out, what would be the best way to get HB to pay the allowed rate? Normally I would give a notice of 10% increment but he is way below the rates that the council pays for new T's on HB. So that will take 5-6 years to bring up to the level that it should be on. I am not sure how long he has been in but I know its after 1990. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grampa Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I would look on the government LHA website http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Diol1/DoItOnline/DG_196239 to see what they pay for your property and then serve a section 13 notice (if tenancy periodic) on the tenant which he will take to the council (post copy also) the council will either pay or not though there will be a delay before it kicks in. You could also try speaking to the council to find out the best date to start it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
