    Call the Department of Fair Trading or your state’s equivalent.

    Hay, are you managing yourself or an agent?

    I’ve been told that it’s a simple matter of contacting the Bond people. They will send a letter to the ‘last address’ of the tenants – which probably will be the IP if they have done a runner. They have 4 weeks or so to contest not getting their bond. If they don’t answer, it’s released to you!

    However, if they’ve done a runner, I’d also check out your rights about entering the property etc. You don’t want to do the wrong thing…

    Cheers
    Mel
