Buy-to-Let Solicitor fees

BUSINESS OBJECTIVES ACHIEVED

The legal landscape for the letting and management of buy-to-let properties has changed so rapidly over the last few years that even the most seasoned landlords have come unstuck at one stage or another.

Forbes' Landlord Complete team have a wealth of experience of what can (and often does) go wrong when a landlord wants to evict a tenant. At this stage it is much more difficult (and expensive) to fix things - leaving landlords with no rental income for a period of time, whilst paying out in legal and court fees.

Prevention is better than cure

Whether you are a business, corporate landlord or an individual, we can offer a number of fixed-fee services, so that you're prepared. From drafting tenancy agreements to tenant management, our fixed fee services offer unrivalled value for money.

Fixed fee: tenancy agreements

Our expert buy to let solicitors can offer advice to landlords and letting agents on the drafting of all forms of tenancy agreements. We will ensure that your agreements are in compliance with current legislation and ensure that all the pre-contract obligations are taken care of. We can also offer advice on other important documentation including inventories, checklists and rent arrears statements. At Forbes Solicitors, we ensure that the tenancy agreement reflects our client's needs, while also keeping in mind their obligations to the tenant.

We can draft the Tenancy Agreement and provide a package of tailored advice covering the various statutory pre-tenancy obligations of a landlord for an all-in fee of £300 + VAT.

Alternatively, we offer a fixed fee service for drafting an Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement for just £150 + VAT.

If you take the full package of tenancy agreement and advice, you will also get 10% off our landlord complete services - if the need should arise to evict your tenant.

Evictions & defended claims

Whether you need to make a possession claim or evict a tenant, our professional buy to let solicitors are here to help. If you need to evict a tenant, we will ensure that all legal requirements are followed and dealt with. Failing to follow the correct eviction process may leave you open to criminal or civil legal proceedings, which may result in you having to pay a fine or the tenants being allowed back into the property. In severe cases, a prison sentence may be handed down. Our landlord focused solicitors are here to ensure that all correct legal procedures to evict a tenant take place.

If you need to take possession of your property, for whatever reason, our buy to let solicitors are here to offer you expert legal advice on dealing with a defended claim. The tenant will have a right to submit a defence claim, and a disputed property possession claim can take a long time to get through the courts. However, we will advise you on what your options are for the best possible outcome. Depending on your legal problem, we may be able to offer fixed fees, or we will agree on how our services will be paid for before we begin with any proceedings.

Rent recovery

Our landlord services include recovery of rent arrears. There are two ways we can do this; either on a standard basis, or an accelerated procedure can be used. We can advise you what the best course of action is, based on your situation. When it comes to rent recovery, we can team up with our colleagues at Forbes Collect, our debt recovery team, to help you adopt the best approach for collecting your rent arrears.
