What can I do if tenant refuses to leave

Issue proceedings for possession Using County Court bailiffs (or sometimes High Court Sheriffs) acting under a court order for possession is the ONLY legal way you can physically evict tenants from a property if they refuse to go voluntarily.

How do I convince my tenant to move out?

  1. Explain the Situation – Tell your tenant in straightforward terms what the problem is, and explain that they cannot stay on the property any longer.
  2. Describe the Consequences – Calmly explain that they will be evicted with necessary court orders if they remain on the property.
