My tenancy is ending but I don't want to leave. What will happen if I don't move out?

Question

Accepted Answer

If your tenancy has ended, you should leave the property and take your things with you. If you don’t, your landlord can ask for a possession order from the Tenancy Tribunal. (They can do this even if you kept paying rent after the tenancy ended). If you still don’t leave, they can go to the District Court and ask for the order to be enforced. Then a bailiff or the police can remove you from the property.
It’s not legal for the landlord to remove you from the property themselves. While you are still living there, you have the same obligations to each other as if your tenancy hadn’t ended.
