Rent arrears after tenant has left

Advice please…recovering arrears after a tenant has left. I served S21… but it still took time for him to leave. I do need to submit a trace search for his new address, I’ll have to wait a couple of months until he appears on registered records (council tax/benefits/electoral records etc.)…(I may be able to find this out through his local activity…and I dont mean stalking, just word of mouth) My question is …the best way to recover the debt…approx £8000. He has also left utility arrears…I have made the utility company aware. I provided a reading on the date the tenant moved in…and again on the date he moved out. The utility company are not pursuing me…the debt is “to the occupier”

The utilities and council tax are not and won’t be your responsibility

Does he have any money or a job?
