Son’s Ex Won’t Move Out Of The House

My lovely son has just found out that the woman he has been living with for the past two years has been cheating on him behind his back.

They were living in a rented house that he paid for each month. He is heartbroken. He has moved out of the house and has handed his notice in at the Estate Agents.

He has since found out that she has a history of doing this to other men and that she has no intention of moving out and will just stay there.

Can the Estate Agents evict her from the house or, will my son have to keep paying for as long as she’s there?

Wait 'til she's out, change the locks, give the agents the new keys - then she either commits a crime by breaking in or makes a supervised visit with the agent to get her stuff - either way your son should be off the hook.

He needs professional legal advice about his legal rights, and how to enforce them.

Get him to make an appointment with a solicitor if he doesn't already have one.

If he's got a contract then all he needs to do is abide by it. If she isn't mentioned in it, then she's irrelevant. I hate saying end of, but...end of.

Chrissa, I’m sorry to hear about your family having problems .

tomus must be right: just read what the contract requires for the end of a tenancy, and do it. It's nothing to do with her.

Much more broadly, if your son has had this problem before, maybe he could consider therapy. A knack for choosing Miss Wrong every time must be making his life a misery, and though none of it may be his fault, he could still brighten his future by considering the selection processes he goes through.
