Tenant Eviction - Stage Two

Stage Two - Information

If your tenant does not leave the property or pay the outstanding arrears after the Section 8 Notice expires, we can commence court possession proceedings.

Once we have issued the proceedings we will notify you of the hearing date (which is likely to be within the next 4 to 6 weeks), and arrange for an advocate to attend Court with you at the hearing.

Alternatively, if you do not wish to attend Court with the advocate, we will prepare a Witness Statement which you will need to sign. This will cost an additional £50 (plus VAT).

Your witness statement will be filed at the Court and sent to the tenant before the hearing takes place. The advocate will attend the Court hearing and apply for possession of your property, judgment in respect of the arrears of rent, and fixed costs.

After the hearing we will inform you of the outcome.

Price: £535 (inc. VAT & Court Fee)

Please note that this cost only includes the initial hearing.  Further costs will be charged to you if a further court hearing is necessary or a defence is filed.
