My tenant has disappeared owing 3 months rent and 2 electric bills at a total of nearly 1700 euros. We only took 1 months deposit which was 500. The property was ok, needed a good clean and laundry and we had a number of repairs but the deposit covered this and the electric but i am annoyed that they still lived rent free for 3 months. Is there anything I can legally do? My friends say to let it go as it would be too expensive to pursue but I would like to know if I have any options available to me? Is there such thing in Spain as a small claims court or do I have to pursue through another court and if so what is the likelyhood of success and would it be a waste of money? The neighbour of my property said that my tenant had spoken with him a few months ago and my tenant had said that he may go back to the UK. Could I try and track him down over there? Sorry if I sound very determined but I just dont like people taking the **** !
