More than 11,000 no-fault bailiff evictions in past year
Original Article Summary
In its manifesto, Labour vowed to ban Section 21 orders which allow landlords to remove tenants without a reason.
PropMatch Curated Analysis
Over 11,000 households faced bailiff evictions under Section 21 no-fault evictions in the past year, with Labour's Renters' Rights Bill to abolish this practice expected to become law after summer parliamentary recess, introducing 12-month protected periods and extended notice requirements.
Investor Relevance
Critical for all landlords as Section 21 abolition will fundamentally change tenant management strategies, requiring stronger tenant vetting, different lease structures, and enhanced property management processes to handle more complex eviction procedures for problematic tenancies.
