Our eviction process

We explain the eviction process below, including the legal steps we’ll take—such as serving a Section 8 or Section 21 notice and applying to court if necessary—to help you regain possession of your property in line with housing law.

Serve the required notice

We will serve the appropriate notice, whether a Section 8 or Section 21, and once issued, your tenant will be required to vacate the property.

Possession order claim

Once the required notice period has expired, if the tenant fails to vacate, we will initiate possession claim proceedings in court.

Instruct the bailiffs

Once the possession order is granted, the tenant has 14 days to vacate. If they fail to do so, we will instruct bailiffs or High Court Sheriffs to enforce the eviction.

Change the locks

Once your tenant vacates the property, it is advisable to have a locksmith change the locks on the same day to secure the premises.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I evict a tenant?

Reclaiming a property from a tenant ordinarily takes approximately one to four weeks post being granted a possession order by the court. We assure swift eviction upon service enlistment, respecting the guidelines in Section 21.

Thus, within a reasonable timeframe before the court-given deadline, your property can be back in your possession

What happens if my tenant refuses to leave?

If you have asked a tenant to leave your property and they refuse, you can seek a possession order through the courts. Once granted, we can help you obtain the services of bailiffs who will legally enforce the order. It is important to note that the fees associated with hiring bailiffs can be high, but the resulting peace of mind is invaluable.

Can landlords still evict tenants?

As a landlord, you have the power to remove a tenant from your property. However, this can only be done with a court order and a possession order. Our services can assist in evicting a problematic tenant by requesting bailiffs to forcefully remove them after their assured shorthold tenancy expires, the assured shorthold agreement is terminated, and the court allows you to regain possession of the property. Our team is here to help make this complex process less daunting for you.

What are the new rules for evicting tenants?

In order to obtain a possession order and evict a client, we advise following the updated rules enforced in court. To start, comply with Section 21 of the Act and proceed with the necessary steps to serve a written notice if the fixed tenancy term has expired or you wish to terminate it.
