The May 2025 court data reveals several important trends in the rental sector. Median possession timelines have increased to 26.1 weeks, up from 24.1 in 2024. While possession claims have slightly decreased, landlords are now more likely to pursue cases through to repossession. High Court enforcement is increasingly being used as a quicker alternative to traditional bailiff routes. At the same time, a rise in settlements and mediation suggests that more landlords are working proactively with tenants experiencing short-term financial difficulties.
