Neena Pandya rented out her social housing flat to a family of four for £1,000 per month in cash.
She was continuing to receive housing benefit and council tax reduction from Kingston Council.
During this time, she resided in her inherited property in Harrow, which she also sublet to several tenants.
She did not disclose her inheritance, valued at over £70,000, and continued to claim benefits she was no longer eligible for.
PA Housing took legal action against Pandya last year.
The court ordered the return of the property within 14 days, with rent arrears of £14,000, court costs of £6,000, and an Unlawful Profit Order of £75,000 to be paid.
Pandya’s application to suspend the possession order was dismissed, and the property was recovered last October.
The Department for Work and Pensions is taking separate action to reclaim further overpayments.
