Dean Allan and his family were served a Section 21 no-fault eviction notice by Nottingham City Homes

A Nottingham dad says he has no doubt that his family will be homeless within weeks as Nottingham City Homes evicts them to sell the property. A possession order has now been granted to NCH following a court hearing, meaning the family have six weeks before they have to leave their home.

It was first revealed in February that the Nottingham City Homes Group was selling 44 properties as part of efforts to repay £18 million of ringfenced money that should have been used on its housing stock, but that was unlawfully spent elsewhere. Of the properties being sold, 40 of them were still occupied at the time and tenants were therefore served Section 21 'no fault' eviction notices, a type of notice the new Labour government has pledged to abolish.

"Without any admission of liability and as a recital to the order, it's been agreed that they will be offset against any potential rental repayment application that the defendant may make. From the 5th of August, when the rent next falls due, the defendants will pay their monthly rent as and when it falls due until possession is delivered up.

"It's going to be a very difficult time for us. We've never experienced anything like this. I'm just going to have to try and make it as soft a transition as possible and reduce the mental impact on my family."
