How to Serve a Section 21 Notice: Simplified with LeBern
Serving a Section 21 notice is the crucial first step in legally regaining possession of your property. While the process may seem straightforward, strict compliance with legal requirements is essential to avoid costly delays or invalid notices. At LeBern, we simplify the process by handling every step for you, ensuring your notice is valid, compliant, and served with precision.
Step 1: Check Compliance with Legal Requirements
Before serving a Section 21 notice, we ensure you’ve met all the necessary legal obligations, such as:
- Protecting the tenant’s deposit in a government-approved scheme
- Providing key documents, including the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), gas safety certificate, and the “How to Rent” guide.
- Ensuring no improvement notices have been issued due to tenant complaints.
Step 2: Draft the Notice Correctly
Accuracy is critical when drafting a Section 21 notice. It must include the tenant’s name, property address, and the notice period. Errors here can render the notice invalid, delaying your eviction process. Our team handles this for you to ensure compliance and precision.
Step 3: Serve the Notice
A Section 21 notice must be served correctly to be valid. We deliver the notice on your behalf, whether in person, by post, or electronically (if permitted by the tenancy agreement). This ensures you meet the required two-month notice period.
Step 4: Prepare for the Next Steps
If the tenant does not vacate by the specified date, we guide you through applying for a possession order, ensuring you’re fully supported throughout the process.
