Landlady Gets Jail Sentance

I was reading one of the newsletters I get from a council where I have a property and their headline was "Prison Term For Landlord".  It was a female landlord who changed the locks and threw the tenant's belongings in the front garden.  The tenant was a single father with 4 young girls and the landlord made them homeless 3 days after christmas.  The landlord got a 6 month prison sentence.

I know it all gets frustrating when a tenant doesn't pay the rent but you should NEVER resort to just throwing out their stuff and changing the locks.  I know I don't have to tell you this but I thought I would bring it to your attention if you ever feel the urge to go to the dark side!  Remember - its only MONEY!  Follow the legal procedure and they'll be out within 12 weeks. SO DO IT RIGHT!!!
