The Situation
A small residential landlord was left with nearly £7,000 in rent arrears after the occupant vacated the property in 2024. No forwarding address was provided, and the individual refused to communicate with the landlord.
The client needed support to trace the debtor, with the potential for further assistance to recover the outstanding balance via residential debt recovery.
After searching for tracing services in Preston, the client contacted Strikes Property Services Group.
Our Approach
Once instructed in 2025, Strikes Property Services Group carried out a trace and achieved a positive result on the first attempt. We then provided the client with clear guidance on the recommended next steps, including pre-action considerations, to support a compliant route to recovering the debt.
With accurate contact details confirmed, the landlord was able to re-establish communication directly with the debtor and progress matters without delay.
Outcome
The debtor is now on a payment plan and is actively repaying the monies owed to the client.
