I saw a brief mention on the site that you cannot hand the keys in for voluntary repossession if the property is tenanted. Is this still the case?(posted 8508 days ago)The property has been tenanted for 8 yrs but current tenants have not paid rent for 14 weeks. I have just applied to evict them, but the court clerk told me this will take at least another 12 weeks to get them out.
I am living on benefits and cannot pay the mortgage. Have told the lender about the tenants, but they just tell me to pay up. Now want to give it up to voluntary repossession as advised on the site to keep it out of the Courts.
Any advice please?
