Hi . Looking for some advice , please . We bought a house in Oct 2021 with a tenant living there , firstly we bought this house as it was the only thing we could afford and because there was a tenant it turned others bidding on it as we were out bidded on every house we looked at .
The tenant seemed a nice girl with 3 kids and eager to move, receiving Hap payment , we knew from day one that her partner was living there even though he is not supposed to be but ignored , gave her the proper eviction time etc and we never bothered her as took her at her word she would be gone. Unfortunately on the day we were to get the key from her she text to say postponing the move as the emergency accommodation she was provided with was too far , to say we were devastated is an under statement .
I called to the house and pleaded with her. Myself , husband and 2 daughters are living in 1 bedroom since February in a relatives home.
I am wondering if I should I tell her that i will report her as her partner is self employed and they are not badly off and have family in the area also, I am finding it hard to sit back and do nothing .
I know its a rotten thing to do but the way I look at it now is that what she has done to my family is rotten also. has anyone any tips or experience in this , I've lodged my dispute with the RTB and my solicitor said I can't do anything until then but I can't wait months for this , Heartbroken. Very unfair system , to do everything thing right legally and its doesn't matter.
😔
