About to get the bailiffs in. Who is responsible if the tenants evicted, have bill arrears ? Me? The landlord, before the new tenants move in?
Thank you
Do you mean things like gas and electric? If they are in the tenants name then they are tenants debt not yours. As long as you tell the utility companies the day you take back the property and take meter readings you are only liable from when you take it back. Same for council tax, and if the property is empty you may be able to get reduced rates for the period it’s empty
