Section 21 Possession Notice
Section 21 Possession Notice
A Section 21 Housing Notice / Possession Notice should be used by a landlord who wishes to obtain possession of the property under an assured shorthold tenancy because the period of the tenancy:
has expired - section 21(4)A
due to expire - section 21(1)B
This download contains both versions.
As a landlord, you must give the proper period of notice and give notice using an appropriate form. Under Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988, a landlord must give at least 2 months' notice of their intention to take possession of their property. Therefore as a landlord, you can serve a Section 21 notice on the tenant(s) 2 months before the tenancy is due to end so that the expiry of the tenancy and the end of the notice period coincide.
You will have to use this Section 21 housing notice containing the correct details to get possession of your property whenever a tenancy term is due to expire or has expired and has become a periodic tenancy.
