The government has confirmed that notice periods for evictions will be returning to pre-pandemic notice periods as of the 1st October 2021. This also comes with a warning that it could be curtailed should the pandemic worsen again.

This means landlords giving notice of their intention to evict via either a Section 21 or Section 8 notice will need to give two months' notice, down from six months, allowing landlords to gain back their properties far more quickly.
