| Has anyone had the problem of a tenant owing many weeks WMCs? Tenant has been asked to leave and has vacated the property but still owes hundreds of pounds. How do we best try to reclaim this money-solicitors letter?-small claims court? If you have had this problem I would be obliged for any help or advice. It may also be that utility bills are also outstanding but we will not know until bills start arriving. Kathryn |

Sadly, the general message from the membership on "residual sums owed" is that it is a lost cause! Solicitors' letters, small claims court, etc. are often not successful and cause even more charity expenditure. Some members have proposed a "deposit" being placed with the trust in like manner to landlords in the private sector - but this would be unlawful in charity law. A constant close watch on WMC payments is the only answer.
