Grounds for Eviction

So much is spoken about section 21 and accelerated possession but not so much about the other routes to possession.

In this series, we will be looking at the grounds for Assured and Assured Shorthold tenants one at a time. The pros and cons of using each of them, when you can and can’t use them, the perils, pitfalls, defences and counterclaims.

Although this series of posts was written some time ago, the law has not changed (much) since then, so it is still valid.
