I haven't seen any details re costs when going down the s21 eviction route. Could anyone give me a rough idea of costs if this became necessary and we needed to use the Bailifs to do an eviction.

Hopefully it won't come to this but an idea on costs would be appreciated.

Thanks

    The N5/N5b costs £280.00 to submit.
    Bailiffs(if needed) £110.00

    Ouch, well that's very interesting as I haven't read anything about the N5 or N5b so I figure a bit more research will be needed on the procedure.

    As I say I'm hopeful that it may not get to this but I'm just being prepared in case.

    Thanks for your swift response.

    A Sec 21 is free to issue.
    Once you want to action it, you have to pay court fees to do so.

    It’s the cost of the paper and stamp really. Only if they refuse to go will you need court/baliffs.
