County Court bailiffs can take weeks or months to act. Using the High Court enforcement route to recover your property can be quicker and more effective, especially if:

  • Rent arrears are growing.
  • You’re facing financial hardship.
  • Tenants are causing damage or nuisance.

See our Transferring Up campaign page for more information on where delays are at their worst.

Our members can help you recover your house or land under an Order for Possession by evicting someone if they are occupying your property.

Instructing a High Court Enforcement Officer is easy.

Just choose the option that applies to you:

  1. I have a High Court Order for Possession
  2. I have a County Court Order for Possession
  3. I don’t have an Order for Possession.
