What’s Happening In The Courts?
| Infosheet
New court data is sending a clear message to landlords and letting agents. 📊
Fewer possession claims are being issued, but more cases are progressing all the way through to enforcement — with repossessions rising and timelines stretching to around 27 weeks from claim to outcome. That’s nearly seven months of continued costs, uncertainty, and potential arrears once a case enters the system.
With the Renters’ Rights changes on the horizon and court pressures already mounting, preparation is more important than ever.
