a tenant left my property owing me hundreds in rent and damages. I need to find their new address so I can make a court claim.

She has a very unusual surname so its not a problem finding her but she is still registered on the electoral role at my address so everytime I do a search it just comes up with that.

How do I search for a new address?

You'll have to wait until she registers at the new address.
Failing that, pass it to a debt recovery agency.
Is she on Facebook can you find her that way?
Surely her address won't be on Facebook? :-/
I know that but it may be a way to get in contact.
If she owes £100s in rent and damages she is not going to register on the electoral role if she has any sense and does not want to be found.
Yep, totally understand where you're coming from... but... if she doesn't want to register on the electoral roll due to unpaid rent, there's minimal chance she's respond to any Facebook messages from her ex landlord.

This lot are good at finding people, it's not free but it's reasonable.
If she is on FB i would be sneaky and send a message like '' Hi, I have found a valuable piece of your jewellery in your old house, can you give me an address to send it to?

Haha. If someone sent me something like that, no disrespect, I'd probably respond with 'sod off' :D

I don't think she is the kind of person with the knowledge or intelligence to think about the fact that if she registers she'll be traceable. guess I'll just have to wait. Is there really no other way?
what' lot' Rocky?
If she's a bit of a thick shít, then maybe go down the Facebook route then! :D
Sorry forgot the link

I have never found it worthwhile - to sue an ex-tenant for arrears once you have got them out.

they still dont pay and most of them dont have the moolah in the first place
Hate to piss on your parade, but I have to agree with PP.
If they haven't got the money, what do you expect to gain?

Even if don't get the money at least she'll have a CCJ on her credit file
which may not seem like much but it's something!

And she owes me in the region of £2k so if I do get her address then I'll get
the judgement and go down the high court bailiff route
The old adage is "don't sew a man of straw". In this case a woman. It will cost you in time and money but she'll plead poverty. Indeed once sewed she will make sure she has no money.
Write it off as a bad debt.
SIQ.

...But it's not likely you'll get her address.... :-(

You'd probably be throwing good money after bad. She doesn't sound like someone who'd have anything worth the bailiffs taking.
Wow 2k springbulb! I withdraw my earlier advice but only just because you or your agent should not have allowed the debt to reach that level.
Another view is to put the 2k into perspective as a percent of your total past rental profit(s) - if tiny % still forget it. After all it still boils down to you not getting yoour £2k back from a moonlight flitter.
SIQ.


At least getting a ccj will mean she can't rip off another land lord.
Also you could get an attachment of earnings order if she has a job rather than the bailiffs. Just a question was there a deposit if so what happened to it?
