As a follow-up to the mortgage repossession post below, I’ve just spotted a sad story on Landlord Law blog. Tessa had a case in which private tenants discovered, when the bailiffs turned up, that the property they had just rented was subject to a mortgage repossession order which had expired before they even moved in. I suspect this is not going to be that unusual.
Tessa wonders whether there should be a duty on managing agents to ensure that the properties they let on the landlord’s behalf are actually available to let. An interesting thought. Tessa asks for comments…
