Hi Bhupendra, I have just gone through this process myself. Nightmare tenants sourced from Openrent! The tenants were making all the usual excuses, after 2 months of no rent payment I contacted a specialist landlord firm ‘Legal for landlords’ who sent the tenants a section 8 notice, they will also seek a possession order for you if the tenants don’r leave 2 weeks after receiving the section 8. Hope that helps ---
