Getting a Possession Order

You cannot get a warrant of execution or an eviction notice, until you have a possession order, and you cannot get a possession order without giving you tenants the appropriate notice, which can be another minefield. As you have to use the correct notice, which must contain the correct information and has to be delivered in a way you can prove, and the tenants deposit has to be in certain scheme.

Can I Make A Mistake on the Form

If any of the above has not been completed properly, then the judge cannot award possession, regardless of any other fact. If all the above has been done correctly a possession order could be granted with a future date for the tenant to leave set for possibly another fortnight.

Will The Tenant Leave

The chances are the tenant will not leave (if you, and there is nothing you can do about it - if the tenant does leave AND surrender his keys you maybe ok to take back your property, but if the tenant doesn't surrender there keys and just goes, it may not be advisable that you just take back the property, as you have to prove that the tenant has abandoned the property, which can be a challenge to prove especially if you don't have it in writing and / or the tenants keys.
