Re: Yay more Fun - Housing Association Rental Repossession

I am a solicitor acting on behalf of Marches Housing Association and have been forwarded your email below in order to respond to your questions as follows:

1. The basis of seeking possession is service and expiry of a section 21 Notice Requiring Possession which entitles Marches Housing Association to possession, given that you entered into an assured shorthold 'starter' tenancy. When applying for a possession order in this way, it is not necessary to rely on specific 'grounds' such as rent arrears or anti-social behaviour. However, in terms of the Association's motives for serving a s21 Notice and obtaining a possession order, these include the numerous incidents of anti-social behaviour committed by you and the failure to pay rent on time.

2. No, clearing the arrears and paying the rent on time from now on would not stay the process of obtaining possession. It is the Association's intention to recover possession of the property following the possession order being made on 18 October 2012.

3. As per 1. above, the section 21 Notice was served on you after a comprehensive review of your conduct of your starter tenancy. The considerations taken into account by the Association included anti-social behaviour, rent arrears and your failure to take heed of warnings about your behaviour.

4. No, given the reasons for serving the s21 Notice on you and in turn obtaining a possession order against you, Marches will not consider you for a transfer to another property.

I hope the position is clear from these responses and that you will voluntarily give up possession of the property.

Regards

This was the response that i have received from Marches earlier on today.

Re: Yay more Fun - Housing Association Rental Repossession

Looks like we are getting placed into B&B from the sounds of things.

My partner is speaking to the head of family and well being whom happens to be her bosses bosses boss and also oversees the HOT team.

Hopefully 2moro when we have our actual appointment we will have had some better news.

Re: Yay more Fun - Housing Association Rental Repossession

Good luck Kila

Are the Baliffs turning up tomorrow or are you just moving out. Would have been nice to get some more time

Re: Yay more Fun - Housing Association Rental Repossession

Bailiffs will be here at 13:30 so have been told we will be placed in B&B by council although i kinda have a small ace up my sleeve thanks to a certain grandma that looks out for her grandson and great-grandson.


So we are in a position to do more now than we could


I.e

We could clear arrears & put 6months down on private

Put 6 months down on private and set payment plan on arrears and then F&F to my creditors

Or

Just 1 month rent & deposit + F&F creditors + pp on arrears


so definately looking up and wont have to deal with this shitty flat again

Re: Yay more Fun - Housing Association Rental Repossession

Get anything mate, a B&B is not the place for a family..... serious, if you have the cash then get sorted and pay 6 months up front - you're working so can then not worry about rent for a while.... if anything always pay a couple of months in front so if you lose your job or quit, you will not be in immediate arrears.

But whatever you do, try and learn from this

You need a detached house in a field to ensure no neighbours complain

Re: Yay more Fun - Housing Association Rental Repossession

Well we arent in a shitty B&B but in a travelodge so have some more flexability than if we were in a B&B

All stuff in storage so will be constantly too-ing and fro-ing between the travelodge and the storage centre
