🚨 Renters’ Rights Act | Your Guide to Possession Grounds 🚨
The latest addition to our Renters’ Rights Act toolkit is a practical guide to possession grounds after 1 May, helping agents and landlords understand what’s changed, what new eviction grounds are available, and how to apply them correctly.
When the Renters’ Rights Act is introduced, regaining possession will change significantly. Landlords will need to use the Section 8 process, rely on a valid statutory ground, serve the correct notice, meet evidence requirements and obtain a court order. Using the wrong ground or notice could delay or prevent possession.
It covers key scenarios, including:
✅ When a landlord wants to sell
✅ Rent arrears
✅ Anti-social behaviour
✅ Damage to property
Selecting the correct ground is essential, and these guides provide clear, practical guidance to support compliant decision-making.
