The Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA) has this week reported an increase in the number of tenants struggling to meet their rental payments. Almost two thirds (65%) of members surveyed reported an increase over the last six months of those having difficulty paying their rent.

In the current economic climate tenants are frequently experiencing cashflow problems. And as a result landlords are now suffering delayed or missed rent.

It is therefore more important than ever for landlords to be fully aware of their options regarding late paying tenants.

But do you know what steps are open to you if your tenant fails to pay on time?

UK average monthly rents are £795 per month. Therefore each weeks delay in taking the appropriate action could cost almost £200.

What are the steps you need to take to recover your rent?

The best time to do your research is before this problem arises. If you do not look into your options until rent arrears have already built up you will be wasting valuable time and allowing arrears to grow further.

To help landlords I am running a seminar to guide you through the legal options available to you.  In just one hour you could be fully prepared and aware of your rights and the legal process involved in dealing with rent arrears.

How would it feel to be taken step by step through the legal options available to you?
