So, how does it work?

There are 4 stages to evicting a tenant:

1. AnalysisWork out which procedure to use – the kit includes instructions for:• Accelerated claims based on

section 21• Rent arrears claims• Section 21 claims not using the

accelerated procedure, and• Evicting tenants with non

regulated / common law tenancies

Tip: The Which Possession Proceedings Guide will help you

2. Service of notices• We have all the standard notices -

with covering letters• Use our special ‘document

generator’ – it will also store them so you can use them later

• Extra guidance on serving notices • Possession notices are CRUCIAL

– get this wrong and you could lose the case

3. Bring proceedings for possession• Just follow the online

instructions• Links to download the forms so

you always use the most recent version

• There’s a question area on every page of the DIY guide for your queries, or

• Pay extra 1: 1 support services are available

Warning!

• Unless your firm is authorised and regulated by the SRA, as a letting agent you’re not authorised to sign court forms for possession on your landlords’ behalf

• Courts often reject claims for this reason• However you CAN advise clients and

draft the paperwork for them to sign • As managing agent you can also attend

the court hearing on their behalf

Alternatively – why not recommend it to your landlords?• They can then sign up and

issue the proceedings themselves

• You can attend any court hearing as their agents if required

• 100’s of landlords have used our system to get their possession order

Professional advocacy service available for court hearings• Trained court advocates as used by

solicitors firms and insurance companies

• They will meet you at court and represent you before the Judge

• Online booking form

• Cost is £144 (incl VAT)

• Highly recommended, particularly if the tenants are likely to attend court

4. Bailiffs

• This is the final stage of the proceedings

• The guide has full instructions on how to book the bailiffs appointment and

• Deal with any claims for more time which may be made by the tenants
