Section 8 and Section 21 Notices

Recommended Posts

We have served a Section 21 Notice and because the Tenant has lodged a defence, it has gone for a Hearing for 1st April. To cover ourselves, in case the Judge rules against us, are we allowed to serve a Section 8 Notice now (or two weeks before the Hearing), which would become valid in two weeks? We would like to submit the new claim (based on the Section 8) immediately after the Hearing, if it goes against us

Have you considered consulting a solicitor who specialises in housing law rather than asking unqualified, anonymous people on an internet forum?

No it’s the best place to ask TC H as it happens I’m a specialist on this subject what he needs to do is serve them with a section 105b but back it up with a section 328c paying particular attention to paragraph 5a exhibit 2. It needs to be served by that big nasty Stuart from can’t pay we’ll take it away.

There is no defence to a properly-served Section 21... as long as all your paperwork and admin. is in order - it will succeed. If your paperwork and admin. is not in order then the Section 21 will never be valid, until you correct things... by paperwork and admin. I mean things like Deposit protection, GSC, smoke alarms, Right to Rent check, How To Rent Booklet served etc. etc. etc..

There are no such sections of the Housing Act 1988. Please don't post nonsense.

Upon which of the Schedule 2 grounds (Housing Act 1988) would your s.8 Notice rely?
