What if the tenants are causing damage to the property and issuing a notice of repair to the landlord?
If a tenant causes damage to furniture or the interior of the property then the landlord is able to charge the tenant for any repair work carried out or replacements bought, through deducting damage costs from the deposit. If the tenant is not behaving in a tenant like manner and is not abiding by the terms of the tenancy agreement then the landlord is able to evict them by issuing a section 21 notice. If the fixed term of the tenancy has not ended and the landlord feels that the damage to the property is too extensive to wait until the end of the term, then a section 8 notice to quit may be issued. The following grounds for possession could be used in such circumstances. Ground 13 The property has deteriorated due to neglect by the tenant or by someone living with the tenant and the tenant has failed to remove that person. Ground 15 Furniture at the property has deteriorated because the tenant or someone living with has neglected the furniture and the tenant has failed to remove that
