Hi all.
Last year I went travelling and as I'm not the richest man on earth I had to rent my house out to pay the mortgage. 1 year fixed rolled in to a short term tenancy agreement in April.
We served notice (section 21) and gave her 11 weeks rather than 2 months. Anyway Wednesday she refused to move out. So this where it gets complicated.
It turns out our letting agent didn't put the deposit in the correct goverment protected account and as she paid a year up front in rent she is allowed a 6 month notice period. Now all this is what a solicitors have told me and I'm wondering if anyone has any knowledge if it's correct before I start handing them wads of money for 2 paragraph letters
