I don't see the problem here at all, Hackney wants it both ways and can't get it so is having a winge.
A simple request for advice, actually. But I'll pass on your concern for the tenant and your offer of a floor to sleep on.

There is really nothing you can do, you fcked up by agreeing to let the other 2 move out early, I don't want a tenant, when I travel or work abroad I leave my house empty, it's my house I don't expect anybody else to pay the mortgage thank you very much.

Yes, and I responded that the nice thing to do would be to allow him to stay on and lose 4/3 of a week's rent. HE9 says that they cannot afford to do this. If they are in such dire financial straights, I would suggest that moving abroad was possibly a reckless thing to do. We can only respond to the information that is presented to us.Sorry - sloppy wording on my part.
Did anyone read and accurately comprehend the OP?

Umm, yes he does. You haven't read the thread at all, have you.
So your place is available for this tenant?
Legally, we're fine, thanks for the faux-concern, you rich cunt, as we verbally agreed all three could leave early, then they came back saying one wanted to stay.

With whom did you verbally agree?

Yipchaa!
So you'd be able to pay the mortgage, plus the rent on the accomodation you were occupying? It would seem HackneyE9 isn't as fortunate.
I've been a tennant and so I understand the whole joint tenancy agreement, HackneyE9 isn't being unreasonable. It's not a case of "fuck you, I want MONEEEY", it's a case of "I can't afford to pay for two places, so you either pay for the one you're living in or you don't live there", which is fair enough.
Yes, it would be lovely if HackneyE9 could afford to let the guy stay on, but he simply can't afford to. How is he the bad guy
No, it would be 2/3 of half the month's rent.
If this tenant was in such "dire financial straights" I would suggest he didn't buy one thousand pounds worth of furniture, before claiming he's skint.

Look HE9 agreed to let the others move out early, thus expecting the other tenant to move out before the contract is completed as well, 3rd tenant says no way, which is within his rights.
HE9 now wants to charge the full rent to the tenant that is left who is not liable due to the fact HE9 okayed the other 2 moving.
get it yet?

Which is 4/3 of a week's rent, as I said.

You're just being wilfully obtuse now. It doesn't suit you at all.
He's losing 1.3 weeks rent from the two tenants who move out and 2 weeks rent to his own landlord because he cannot move back into his house until the last tenant leaves. Do you have that kind of money lying around to just gift to strangers? Lucky you - it'd take me a year to pay off that kind of overdraft...

what he spends his money on is of no concern of yours.
Not quite, snadgey old boy. The tenants asked en masse if they could move out early, to which I said should be ok, then one came back and said he wanted to stay to end.
The only person who's fucking someone else here is this tenant fucking the other two, who will now have to pay till the end whether they live there or not. I was just trying to be helpful.
Which is 4/3 of a week's rent, as I said.
If you say so. It's about 500 quid, anyway, which seems to be no skin off your nose, but I can't afford.

Well, you were the one accusing me of not being able to afford to work abroad - which is no concer of yours, by that reckoning. Your actually showing yourself up to be quite unpleasant now.

My sympathy is draining again. You're charging £375 per week in rent?

Now that is new information on the table, you never mentioned that the 3 agreed to move out early, did you get it in writing?
If you agreed for the other 2 to move early ( and to the sounds of this it is to your advantage as you are ready to move back in) they are not liable for rent.
and neither is the one that sees the contract out.
plain and simple you have fucked up.

The 2/3 is what you are paid by the remaining tenant, which is then subtracted from any rent you have to pay for those 2 weeks.4/3 of a week actually - remember?
