Rent Arrears & Advice
There’s often a genuine reason for falling behind on rent. You may think a payment has gone through when in reality, it hasn’t. Perhaps housing benefit payments have ceased and you’re unaware. Whatever the reason, our solicitors will negotiate with your landlord on your behalf. Our aim is to come up with an agreement that works for everyone involved. Using dispute resolution tactics, we’ll look at reaching an agreement to clear rent arrears over a period of time.
Rent Arrears & Legal Proceedings
If legal proceedings have already been brought against you by your landlord, this will be in the form of a section 8 notice for breaching your tenancy agreement. We’ll advise accordingly on how to proceed. If a possession order has been issued by the court we’re able to support you with this also.
If you’re behind with rent payments, it’s important to seek help quickly. Watson Woodhouse is here to support you and find the best solution for all parties involved.
