Breach of Contract; including rent arrears and anti-social behaviour

If the contract-holder breaches the Occupation Contract the landlord may seek possession. The breach of contract process should be following if the contract-holder is not keeping up with rent payments. Please note that if the contract-holder is in serious rent arrears there is a quicker process that can be followed. We are able to advise on landlord’s rights where a contract-holder’s anti-social behaviour is contrary to their contract obligations.
