Make tenant liable for damage to property and unpaid rent faster eviction
Rented property, from July 2018 to April 2019 tenant stopped paying rent, I had to follow the process from section 8,21, to court application via bailifs the whole process took 10 months and they also trashed the property. To date I got 0 GBP back and over 15 000 GBP out of pocket !
The single mother was on benefits , was using her universal credit for holidays, no rent for over 10 months, trashed house. I have been left stranded to re-pay the mortgage, the court fees, the solicitor fees and I had to pay 5000 GBP to refurbish the place as well. She was advised by the council to stay put till the end she didn't even handover key. We need a rapid eviction process for people that behave in such manner and they should be held liable for the damages and unpaid rent.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Damage to property and unpaid rent are already enforceable by the courts.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly how you would like the law to change, or explaining how evictions should be made easier, if that is what you would like to do.
