Before Parliament was dissolved, The Rented Homes Bill was in process, this was the bill that would outline the changes. Firstly all these headlines are very misleading and just scaremongering, Section 21 is NOT being scrapped, actually it is Assured Shorthold Tenancies that are being stopped, which in turn means LLs will not be able to use S21 as S21 of the Housing act will be void. ASTs will revert to Assured tenancies which will require grounds for a LL to evict. Having read the The Rented Homes Bill (which I am sure will be resurrected tomorrow) it clearly states NEW grounds for eviction which would be classed as NO FAULT reasons, such as LL wants to sell, LL wants to move back in etc.. The issue here isnt the removing of S21 it is more to do with the lack of court services with many magistrate and county courts being closed. I see many comments above saying that S8 process needs to be improved or sped up - and although i do not disagree, i feel this is may be said through rose tinted glasses because on average it takes 6-8 months to get an eviction warrant from the date of serving a S21, so LLs are no better off using S21 than they are using S8 and with the ever changing law meaning it is harder and harder to actually serve a valid S21 I thought LLs would be happy to see the back of it.

I understand the need for more homes, but is building the only way? I would prefer if they looked at the easier solution of refurbing the millions of empty homes in the UK, cheaper that building from scratch and no belt green or brown need be used. I appreciate this is not a total solution, but surely it should be looked at as an option

Mike Georgeson, thank you for your comment, i really dont know what the answer is for assisting homeless people move forward. Most of the problem is the fact that when landlords serve S21, local councils will tell them to stay put until bailiffs arrive, this means that tenants then incur the court costs, which they cant pay as their income in limited its a vicious circle which i am unsure how we can fix

Sadly this is a startling reality, I work for a homeless charity and my role is to help people find settled accommodation. Even though we supply deposit and first month rent and have an agreement with our local council to pay landlords HB directly, I find it almost impossible for local landlords to accept homeless people just because they are on benefits
