I have given a tenant a 42 day notice and they have found another property, I was going to move in to the house but circumstances have changed, what should I do to make sure I don't get in trouble? Tenant was pretty upset at being given the 42 day notice in the first place. If I did move in, how long would it need to be for before I could re-advertise.

^^ same applies as in tax issues. What was the intent of the notice when issued?

Agreed. Too many landlords use the 42 day notice to shaft tenants.

Why not just move forward as intended, and use the opportunity to renovate the property while you're living in it and after the renovations are done then rent it again - and it could be for more as it's a higher spec property now. Anything wrong with doing this?

Also worth noting, although slightly off topic, if the house is owned by a company or trust, the LL cannot use the 42-day notice on the basis that they (or their family) are moving in. Thought I'd mention it as in my experience it is not well understood by LL's.
