The government has finally announced the private rental sector exit plan out of the lockdown restriction.
Notice Periods
As part of a phased approach, those notice periods which are currently extended to six months will be reduced to four months from 01/06/2021.
Notice periods for the most serious cases are amended from 01/06/2021 as follows:
In addition, from 01/08/2021, notice periods for cases where there are over 4 months accumulated unpaid rent will reduce further to 2 months’ notice.
Subject to progress with the government’s ‘roadmap’ out of lockdown, notice periods will return to pre-pandemic levels from 01/10/2021.
Bailiff Evictions
The current ban on all bailiff-enforced evictions will end on 31/05/2021.
The courts will continue to prioritise the most serious cases, such as those involving fraud or anti-social behaviour, with many evictions still waiting to be enforced which predated the pandemic.
