Apologies for posting here, I didn’t know what section would be revelant & im desperate for advice. I have a 2 yo & im 7 months pregnant, I’m on my own, in receipt of universal credit & housing benefit. My landlord has given me 8 weeks notice (section 21) im due to leave on April 4th. I went to the council today & theyve advise me to stay in the property until my landlord has taken me to court & the bailiffs come to kick me out. I’m really not comfortable with this, morally. My landlord (male) also lives above me & im really worried the situation could become volatile if I stayed under those circumstances, (he wants to sell.) Also the timing of all this could mean the bailiffs are knocking on my door to kick me out when I’m due/have just had my second baby. My question is, if I leave when the section 21 says (4th April) & go to the council that day will they help me? Or will they say I’ve made myself homeless by not waiting for the bailiffs? Thanks for any help you’re able to give. From one stressed mum.
