Support for Tenants and Landlords Extended until 23 August - Update

As preparations begin for the easing of lockdown across England, the government have also recognised that tenants and landlords continue to require support in these extraordinary times.

It was announced yesterday that the three month suspension currently in place on all new eviction proceedings will be extended for a further two months.

The two month extension will come into force on 25 June, when the previous three month extension, originally announced in March, was due to expire. The mortgage payment holiday offered to landlords has also been granted the same extension.

It is expected that new eviction hearings will be heard by the courts starting from the end of August.
