Section 21 notice advice and eviction support

After Section 21 is abolished, landlords in England will need to rely on the reformed possession grounds. In some situations, these are more limited than the current Section 21 route. For example, the sale and move-in grounds cannot be used during the first 12 months of a new tenancy and require four months’ notice. The mandatory rent arrears threshold also increases from two months to three months. That is why landlords already considering possession should take advice now rather than assume the same options will be available later.
