Autumn Budget: What landlords need to know
Autumn Budget: What landlords need to know
It’s unusual…
If your landlord needs to evict a tenant, the legal processes can seem confusing – all the jargon, rules, notices, different courts and different applications – but don’t despair. This area is one where we excel. We handle these issues on behalf of landlords every day. Our simple, fixed-fee services will keep your landlords on the right side of the law and get back what’s rightfully theirs.

For commercial tenancies, the approach is slightly different.
We use a special form of notice to quit (£179 +VAT). We also handle situations where lodgers are involved and where the tenant has abandoned a property (£159 +VAT).
If the tenant does not vacate the property as required by the Step 1 notice, an application can be made to the court for possession. This is Step 2.
