Navigation of the eviction process

Serving a Section 21 Notice

The Section 21 notice is a powerful tool for landlords wishing to repossess their property at the end of a fixed-term Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) or by activating a break clause. This no-fault notice allows landlords to end a tenancy without the need to provide specific reasons, provided they adhere to regulations set by the Deregulation Act 2015.

Understanding the precise requirements of this notice helps landlords manage their tenancies with confidence.

Serving A Section 8 Notice

Serving A Section 8 Notice

In contrast, a Section 8 notice is applicable when a tenant breaches essential terms of their tenancy agreement, such as failing to pay rent or causing damage. It involves more immediate grounds for eviction, and landlords must familiarise themselves with both the mandatory and discretionary reasons outlined under Section 8 of the Housing Act 1988 to undertake appropriate legal actions.

Navigating these notices effectively is crucial for ensuring the swift and lawful recovery of possession, enhancing landlords’ capacity to manage properties with ease. Our eviction notice advice can be crucial in the process.

Section 13 Notice

A Section 13 Notice lets landlords legally raise rent for periodic tenancies under the Housing Act 1988. They must give at least one month’s notice (six months for yearly tenancies) and use Form 4. A Section 13 rent increase can only happen once a year and must match market prices. If tenants disagree with the Section 13 rent increase, they can appeal to the First-tier Tribunal. The Section 13 Notice must be delivered properly, giving tenants enough time to respond. If not challenged, the new rent starts on the set date. Talking to tenants in advance can help prevent problems and make the process smoother.
