Assured Shorthold Tenancy
You can vet your tenants before granting a lease. You can do everything in your power to make their tenancy a successful one. But you can’t eliminate the possibility that, one day, you’ll need to take that tenant to court.
Possession proceedings are all too common. They are the process by which a landlord or agent forces a tenant to leave a property, and in the past they have been a complicated, costly and time-consuming exercise.
At Brethertons we have designed a fixed price service which deals with your assured shorthold tenancy claim quickly, efficiently and economically. It’s called T-Out (Tenant Out). And it’s a sophisticated, staged case management system run by a team of property lawyers.
Stage 1
Drafting the Section 21 Housing Act Notice and arranging for it to be served on the tenant.
£85 plus VAT
Stage 2
Drafting a Claim Form for Possession (Accelerated Procedure) and issuing it at court.
£110 plus VAT
Stage 3
If the tenant fails to respond to the proceedings within the time allowed we will apply to the court for a possession order to be made.
£70 plus VAT
Stage 4
If the tenant doesn’t vacate the property we’ll begin enforcement proceedings and issue a warrant of possession to the court bailiff.
£70 plus VAT plus court fee
Stage 1
We will take instructions, complete the appropriate retainer documentation and draft a letter before action to the tenant requiring payment of the arrears in full. (That’s if you want to let the tenant remain in the property). This stage is optional. You could go straight to Stage 2 and ask us to serve a notice.
£45 plus VAT
Stage 2
We’ll draft the appropriate Section 8 Housing Act Notice and arrange for it to be served on the tenant.

Stage 3

Stage 4
We will arrange for you to be represented at the hearing. Our service is nationwide; if we are unable to represent you then we’ll use one of our trusted agents.
£125 plus VAT to represent you at the hearing
Stage 5
If the tenant doesn’t vacate the property, we will begin enforcement proceedings and issue a warrant of possession to the court bailiff.
