After the Renters (Reform) Bill abolishes Section 21, what are the most reliable grounds for possession for a landlord needing to sell their property with vacant possession, assuming a tenant refuses to leave?
Quick Answer
With Section 21 abolished, landlords needing vacant possession to sell will use new mandatory grounds introduced by the Renters (Reform) Bill. This includes a new 'landlord intends to sell' ground, requiring two months' notice, available after the initial six months of a tenancy.
