What will replace Section 21 after it's abolished?

Описание: How will landlords be able to evict tenants after Renters' Rights Bill abolishes Section 21 no fault evictions? Find out how landlords will be able to use key new Section 8 grounds for possession from Labour's renter reforms to evict tenants and get their property back.

The Renters' Rights Bill is due to come into effect in 2025 and will bring in new rules which will change landlords’ rights to bring a tenancy to an end in England.

This video explains the differences between Section 21 and Section 8, and what landlords will need to do if they wish to evict tenants once the Renters’ Rights Act comes into force.

It's Part 3 in a free training course called Renters' Rights Bill Explained, from lawyer turned landlord, Suzanne Smith.

The Independent Landlord Youtube channel ‪@indie_landlord‬ by Suzanne Smith is your place for straightforward practical advice on how to prepare for the Renters’ Rights Act, without the politics.
