Recovering rent from tenants

Our landlord disputes team can guide you through your next steps if you have a tenant who is refusing to pay you rent. We understand that trying to recover money from tenants can be time-consuming. Without knowing all of the options that are afforded to you, you may feel trapped and unable to recover the money that is owed to you.

Whatever the circumstance, our solicitors will listen to your case and take the time to fully understand the facts. We can act on your behalf and negotiate with the tenant to come to a solution that works for both parties.

While out of court settlements are very common and preferred by most, we can advise your next steps if the tenant still refuses to pay in relation to taking your case to court.

Our advice to landlords for recovering rent is always:

  • Communicate well with your tenant
  • Make a record of all contact
  • Be reasonable with the tenant to avoid being seen as treating them unfairly
  • Understand their financial position
  • Offer solutions, such as additional repayments over time rather than a lump sum
  • Be honest and transparent

If the tenant is still refusing to offer a solution as to how they will pay the rent arrears, we can advise landlords or possession proceedings and evictions.
