Eviction expert Paul helps an old friend evict a hoarder. In Wigan, letting agents Karen and Gemma act on multiple complaints from neighbours about a racially abusive tenant. Elsewhere in Darwen, letting agent Paul is approached by a new landlord.
This series follows the eviction specialists whose job it is to tackle tenants who can’t, or won’t pay the rent, and local authority housing offices tasked with going after rogue landlords. We also follow the work letting agents dealing with problem tenants. From a weed farm in a three-bedroom Blackburn semi, to drug addicts in a Blackpool bedsit, to 25 migrants squeezed into a suburban London home, Nightmare Tenants Slum Landlords, delves into dark side of Britain’s housing crisis.

Should’ve told the neighbors that they can have him stay with them then since they think he’s not an issue.
Here in the states if they don't pay rent when rent is due you have to pay late fees and if you don't pay it still the landlord starts the eviction process then and you have to go to court and pay the back rent and court fees and you can't move back to the property
In Spain years ago, the old man below us would go ballistic if he heard us walking on the floor. The floors were tile and our shoes were mostly leather-soled (not rubber). He would accost us in the hallway and wave his cane at us. We ended up moving to another apt owned by the same landlord.
People have no self respect.
Bro that hair doesn't make you look any higher…
The UK laws are ridiculous! 3 weeks allowed to collect possessions after eviction is insane. I visited Blackpool a year ago with a friend from the UK. What a god awful disgusting city. Nothing but drugs, alcoholism and massive crime rate
Simple solution for all … invest in sound proofing between the floors!
Is that Blackpool letting agent for real ?, that place is a hovel, saying the tenant has caused all that damage and it needs fully refurbishing at considerable expense to the landlord, it’s clear to see although dirty filthy drug addicts have been living there that property has not been decorated for years, it’s carpets look ancient.
Would never allow someone to rent a property with a history of payment issues and troublemaker. That lady tenant is using the system to live free everywhere she goes, making excuses that things are broken when they aren't then the criminal tenant does not allow the contractor in to fix the items. Laws are useless.
Asleep on the couch and you wake up to a camera crew in the room hahahaha
LOL. Letting agent says…'it's a difficult industry to make money in, because everything is against you' if that is case, why are there so many landlords? they keep saying they aren't charities. BS Property investing is one of the most profitable investments you can make.
Yes ld imagine that proberty investment is biggest in profitable in the u.k. excellent question why is there so many landlords in the u.k. ld say there postive and negative to being a landlord. I feel so sorry for the woman has a loving husband that has a stroke. I had a restive had a stroke she was quite elderly. Once the proberty had been cleaned. As a suggestion maybe be very selective who she has as tennants. I live on the east coast of Australia. 😮😊😊
Do you not have to pay a deposit/bond in the UK? I pay rent weekly and my bond Is 4 week's rent, don't get it back if there is damage or stuff left behind.
Cat is not to blame and if there is m I c e and cat won't be m I c e droppings
14 years oh do keep joking by only little money owed
All that is dangerous no matter what but for unpaid rent get out
Do not renew his lease, easily fixed. Tell him you are renovating and need a vacant property. Change a few taps, light bulbs and advertise for a new tenant. Easy legal way to remove a tenant.
Karen and Jemma DON’T manage anything. That’s lazy government workers!!!, 🤦♂
Fuv-ewh-ewh-ewh fuv-uv-ewh-ewh-ewh ewh-fuv-weh-ewh-fuv-ewh-weh-weh.
All I can hear that dude say.
Typical racist old Pomie hen who has nothing better to do in abusing others who has done nothing bad to him 😂
Show us the old hen's face, he can't even walk and wants to make trouble ?
16.50 minutes KAREN and JEMMA MUST BE the wurst letting agents in the UK. Farking hell they are useless
I would not be a landlord in the UK. You just lose too much money.
Redecorating. The funny British language
If you just have 10K to spend on evicting and clearing a place, it makes you a good fraking living!
Tbh the guy in the flat has a point! Upstairs neighbours are beyond annoying! I also blame the lack of soundproofing! (Which should be a legal requirement) I have moved out of a flat now,for my own sanity! “STOMP STOMP,bang bang” not worth it what so ever
I wouldn’t hire John Bartram to let out anything! Every time on here he has put in the worst tenants. He is hired to take care of the landlord’s interest but it always costs the landlord money. Worst property manager I’ve ever seen. This is why I prefer to take care of my own and do a proper vetting of tenants.
I believe the man is particularly racist towards the previous tenants by what has happened.
But by evicting the man, the landlord is going to have further losses until they can get the new tenants in.
Poor landlord in landlord in Blackpool so unfair
10000 pounds wow
The whole housing crisis is a shambles. I feel for anyone on the receiving end of any of the trouble. It's across the board, dodgy LL's, dodgy tenants and dodgy letting agencies/agents. If it's not one then it's the other. Hat off to anybody that puts up with it 😂
Why would you give a tenancy to someone with payment issues, i has to have a rigourous background check; supply 4xbank statements, give two named references and work history before i was offered a tenancy ih and an in depth interview…I am lucky though as have great neighbours and a good landlord, then again ive been a model tenant.I look after my home, pay my rent on time and c9mply to any work that needs doing. It goes both ways if you respect your property then the landlord will respect you and be more approachable to get work done in my home.
as much right as he did? i dont think so
Absolutely disgusting. How do people live like this?!
I am realising just how lucky I am. I'd hate to have to live in a tiny little room like the hoarder. Perhaps having to exist in something smaller than I keep guinea pigs in, made him mentally ill and started the hoarding. There should be a law about dividing up a single dwelling house and turning little rooms into self contained units. That's all about maximising profit, not having any regard for the unfortunate humans who have to live in them. Victorian slumlords did the same. It should be law that a minimum square metres applies per human. That way slumlords like her wouldn't be able to get away with expecting someone to live in one tiny room.
