Why should I hire a professional eviction service instead of handling it myself?

Hiring a professional eviction service like Shergroup saves time, money, and stress whilst ensuring full legal compliance. Eviction law is complex with strict procedural requirements – serving incorrect notices, missing deadlines, or making technical errors can invalidate your case and restart the entire process. Professional services understand current legislation, complete all paperwork correctly, represent your interests effectively, and can transfer County Court cases to the High Court for faster enforcement. Shergroup’s specialists have handled thousands of evictions, knowing exactly how to navigate obstacles and achieve successful outcomes efficiently. Our expertise prevents costly mistakes and protects you from potential liability for unlawful eviction.

What is lease forfeiture, and when can it be used for commercial properties?

Lease forfeiture is a landlord’s right to terminate a commercial lease and reclaim possession when tenants breach lease covenants. Common grounds include non-payment of rent, unauthorised alterations, subletting without permission, using premises for illegal purposes, or persistent breaches of other lease terms. The forfeiture process requires serving a Section 146 notice (except for rent arrears with specific forfeiture clauses), giving tenants a reasonable opportunity to remedy breaches. Landlords can pursue peaceable re-entry when premises are unoccupied or apply to the court for possession orders. However, forfeiture is a drastic remedy with strict legal requirements – landlords must avoid waiving their right to forfeit by accepting rent after becoming aware of breaches. Shergroup’s commercial property specialists guide landlords through the entire forfeiture process, ensuring all legal requirements are satisfied whilst protecting your property interests.

How long does the commercial eviction process typically take?

Commercial eviction timelines vary significantly depending on the breach type, lease terms, and whether tenants contest proceedings. For rent arrears, if the lease contains a forfeiture clause, landlords can often act relatively quickly. However, for other breaches, landlords must first serve Section 146 notices giving tenants a reasonable time (typically 14-28 days) to remedy violations. If tenants don’t comply, landlords apply to the court for possession orders. Uncontested commercial evictions might be completed within 3-4 months from initial notice to vacant possession, whilst contested cases can extend to 6-12 months or longer depending on complexity and court availability. Shergroup expedites the process wherever legally possible through meticulous preparation, correct documentation, and our ability to transfer possession orders to the High Court for faster enforcement by our certified enforcement officers. Our commercial property team provides realistic timelines during initial consultations. Visit www.shergroup.com to explore our commercial eviction services.”

Can Shergroup help with removing trespassers from my property?

Yes, Shergroup provides comprehensive trespasser removal services for both commercial and residential properties. Trespassers (occupants without any legal right to be on your property) require different legal procedures than tenants with tenancy agreements. For commercial properties, landlords can often use Common Law rights for quicker removal, whilst residential properties typically require possession orders unless specific exemptions apply. Shergroup’s enforcement team assesses your specific situation, advises on the most appropriate legal route, prepares all necessary applications and documentation, and can execute possession orders through our High Court enforcement officers. Our trespasser removal service addresses squatters, unauthorised occupants, and holdover occupiers who remain after tenancies expire. We understand the urgency of trespasser situations and work swiftly to restore your property rights whilst maintaining full legal compliance throughout the process. Contact our property enforcement specialists on 020 3588 4240 for immediate assistance with trespasser removal.”
