TENANCY AGREEMENT

When letting out a property, you should always make sure you have something in writing. This is to protect yourself and ensure the tenant knows what is expected of them. There are different options depending on your circumstances

LEGAL LETTER

If you are having problems with your tenant, we can send them a letter which in most cases is enough to resolve the issue. These letters can be used in lots of situations to seek to prompt compliance by your tenant or resolve issues practically, quickly, and effectively

NOTICES

You should never just change the locks of tenanted property – this is unlawful and illegal! Once a notice has expired, the next step is to obtain an Order for Possession from the Court

WARRANT

Even when you have an Order for Possession, you still cannot just change the locks on expiry. The final step is to arrange for a Court Bailiff to attend to forcibly remove the tenant, if needed
