Accelerated Possession Proceedings

A landlord may need to obtain possession of his property for many reasons; when a tenant is in breach of lease, perhaps no longer paying rent or subletting the property to other people.
If notice has been served with proof of service and the prescribed deposit information provided to the tenant then the accelerated possession procedure can recover the property without a court hearing. The accelerated procedure will not recover rent arrears so depending on the urgency a separate action can be taken to recover the arrears after possession.
Court Costs for the Accelerated Procedure are:
- £355 – Court fee for Accelerated proceedings (section 21 claims only with no
court hearings) - £110 – Bailiffs fee (County court bailiff)
Legal fees excluding Vat are:
- £50 – Section 21 Eviction notice preparation
- £650 – Accelerated proceedings – obtaining possession order (section 21 claims
only with no court hearings) - £250 – Obtaining Warrant of Possession and County Court Bailiff
If the tenant will not leave it may be necessary to apply for a warrant so the bailiffs vacate the property. A separate quote can be provided if this arises or is likely to arise.
