Next Steps After Possession Order Granted
I had a court hearing for possession due to rent arrears, and the order was granted. The judge said the tenant has 14 days to leave.
Could you please explain what the next steps are from here?
It’s difficult to know if the tenant is still living in the property, as they have not communicated with me for several months. The tenant occupies the first floor, and the ground floor access door has a glass panel. When I looked through it, there appeared to be a small pile of mail on the floor. Other than checking again within the next 10 to 14 days, I’m unsure how to confirm whether the tenant is still there.
I have also spoken to the tenants below, and they have not seen him for some time.
