The problems that can occur if you don’t know what you are doing ..

May 27, 2011 by Tessa Shepperson

If you are a landlord or an agent, you need to be careful when serving section 21 notices. It is possible to go spectacularly wrong if you don’t get your paperwork right.

See >> here for a few stories about people who got it wrong and a few stories about people who got it right.

Which would YOU rather be?

If any of the lodger agreements or other forms or letters set out on this page are updated in the 12 months following your purchase, you can request a copy of the new version.

To do this you will need to send us a request by email and let us have the following information (so we can locate your records on our database):

1. Your name
2. The email address you used for your original order
3. Your current email address (if this is different)
4. The date of your original order
5. Your transaction ID (this will be in the email sent when you bought the item)

We will then either send the new version to you by email or provide you with a link where it can be downloaded.

(Note, if we cannot find your purchase in our records, we reserve the right to ask you to send us proof of purchase).
