Help me please folks!! On july 7th i had a tenant leave a property. It remained empty with me visiting for the next 6 weeks or so to clear out. I never thought about C.T! It was fully managed by an agent and i assumed they would have informed the council of its vacant state. I then sold the property and didnt go back for the last 8 weeks or so of owning the property.I didnt think there was any need as the property has been rented for many years. All was sold on or around the 20th october and i thought nothing more of it. Then today i recieved a notice of liability order issued on october 14th 2014. It was addressed to me at my home address and not forwarded on from the previous property. This is my first knowledge of this!! Can they issue a liability order without first trying to contact me?? i dont believe(will have to check) that this is the first letter over the years that the council have sent me at my home address, so i think they could probably have contacted me earlier if they'd tried. I would happily have paid the C.T if i had known it was owed,it seems C.T regs changed in 2013 to only allow 1 months exemption and not the normal 6 which i had been used to..no tenancy change for sometime. Can they issue this order without giving me some kind of summons first? Also they have attached a request for personal information under reg 36 requesting bank balances etc. Any advice much appreciated!!!
