I've been an Agent for many years and also a landlord for a few years. We manage 200 properties and fortunately achieve between 95-97% of rents each month. This obviously means nothing if a landlord is not getting rent ie. suffering 100%. So you could say that good practice and tenant checking is key. However, good tenants can go bad and when they do, it hurts !!! The end result then tends to be that they get evicted owing rent which usually amounts to 3-4 months in total. The Tenant, Agent and Landlord relationship has well and truly broken down at this point. So, why should these 'good gone bad' tenants be able to simply walk away and move on to another property with a clean slate. Not all landlords/agents have any energy left in them at this stage to try and get a CJJ against the tenant for no return and also being further out of pocket. As said in many other comments, landlords and agents are constantly getting a bashing, lets get the bad tenants on the same bus !!! Maybe if there was a scheme to threaten tenants with, just maybe we may resolve issues better quicker and less costly for all parties.
