Queries on section 21 notice

[Langanby]

I want to issue section 21 to my tenants to get my property back in January or February next year. My problem is that I am about to let a new tenant into the property, and I can't issue a section 21 in the first 4 months of a shorthold tenancy.

 

I have another tenant who is 3 months into their tenancy so I can issue them the notice at the 4 month mark in the middle of next month.

 

The other tenant is on a rolling contract having finished his shorthold tenancy nearly a year ago, so I don't see any problem with issung them a section 21 at any point

 

. I have read that the contract can have a clause in it that says that the tenant agrees that the 4 month period is not necessary. Is this true?

 

In this case I could effectively give the contract and the section 21 simultaneously.

 

Help gratefully accepted

I want to issue section 21 eviction notices to 3 tenants

 

. I am concerned that 1 of the tenants may deny receiving the section 21 as they have been a bit awkward.

 

I read online that the best way to prove this is to have a witness to them signing a document saying they have signed the section 21, but I have also read that the tenant does not have to sign witnessed document even if I say they do.

 

Other advice is to use signed delivery, but of course there is no compulsion to receive a signed for item.

 

Please advise

Hello, welcome to CAG.

 

Is this the same tenant that you talk about in your other thread?

Hi

 

I have to agree with Bankfodder on the Issuing of the Section 21 Notice.

 

Send it by both:

 

Recorded Delivery (keep the receipt in a safe place)

 

Send it by normal post ensuring to get Free Proof of Posting from the Post Office (keep the receipt in a safe place)

Thanks for advice

I thought they were not allowing people to sign for recorded delivery/special delivery now meaning it could still be argued that they ever received it

The thing is that I am often in the house doing jobs and the tenants have no problem letting me in to do such jobs. Would it be better photographing myself leaving the section 21 letter in the place where mail is put by the front door with a time stamp on the photo (if that's possible) during one of these visits. I don't want to insist on a snap of me handing it to them as that seems a bit aggressive.

I read about people not submitting the right section 21 form. Can someone tell me where to get the absolute cast iron version of this form?

[honeybee13]

Hi.

 

I've merged your two threads as I assume they're about the same eviction. Hopefully someone in the know will be along later with advice for you.

You do realize If you want your property back and tenants don't leave of their own Free will, you got Not chance of getting them back in January or February next year.

 

 A s21 does not end the tenancy, if any of the tenants are still there after it expires you will have to go to court and obtain a possession order and if T is still there after date ordered by court to leave, you will have to apply for bailiffs to remove them.

 

Given the pandemic and court delays, you may get your property back in say a year time .

Yes I realise all of that is the nightmare scenario, and we may end up a few £1000 out of pocket........maybe the glass will end up being half full....hope springs etenal
