  • Action against guarantor and disappeared tenant.

    I am a small landlord who has at last managed to get rid of tenant from hell. She has left owing 3 months rent but there is a guarantor.

    I have managed to trace her new address and in the process of tracing and conforming the current details of the guarantor.
    When sending letter before action should this be sent to the guarantor as well?

    There is also a significant amount of damage amounting to some £4k to repair. Can I put the money claim for rent and the claim for damage on the same case as guarantor is only held for payment of rent.

    S69 interest will also be claimed for late rent payments and then effective on damage from date works were done on repairs. Do I need to itemise in separate sections how the claim for s69 has been calculated?

    Q1. LBA to guarantor as well - but make it clear you will be claiming under the guarantee.

    Q2. Yes, but you can only claim from the guarantor what he/she has agreed to pay.

    Q3. Yes.

      Hi

      Just a tip

      When claiming against a personnel guarantor, Be reasonable with what your claiming and dont try over claiming any part of it. When claiming for general damage, make sure you account for normal wear and tear.

      always assume that any correspondence and claim you make will at some point be put in front of a judge or justice,
