Can I evict a tenant in England if I want to sell my property, and what is the current legal process and notice period required under Section 21 and Section 8, considering the Renters Reform Bill?

Quick Answer

Yes, you can currently evict a tenant to sell your property using a Section 21 notice with a two-month notice period. The upcoming Renters (Reform) Bill will abolish Section 21 and introduce a new Section 8 ground for selling, also requiring two months' notice but with additional conditions.
