What happens if I don’t pay rent?

Question

Accepted Answer

As soon as you’re overdue in your rent – even if just by one day – your landlord can give you a written notice telling you to pay the overdue amount within two weeks (14 days), or longer if the landlord chooses. If you don’t pay it by the set time, your landlord can apply to the Tenancy Tribunal for it to order you to pay the overdue rent. They can also ask the Tribunal to end the tenancy and order you to move out.
The landlord can also go to the Tribunal for these orders once you’re three weeks (21 days) behind in the rent, regardless of whether they’ve given you a notice or not.
