Good morning & Happy Easter

A tenant in my HMO left owing rent arrears and with no forwarding address. At an uncontested Court hearing for Section 8 I secured possession and an Order for just under 5k.

I understand that this is not yet a registered CCJ. Please can you advise what I have to do to register a CCJ from this position given that I do not know the tenants current address. I have read that a CCJ can only be registered after attempts to enforce it but like I say the tenant left unannounced and the room is let to another.

I would like to keep costs to a minimum as I understand that the tenant may be unemployed. Its another question as to how much money i would throw at chasing this debt but i would at a minimum wish for the CCJ to be in place.
