What's it like to receive a section 21 notice?
A section 21 notice is the form your landlord must give you to start the process to end your assured shorthold tenancy.
It gives you notice to leave your home, but it’s legal for you to stay in your home after the date it expires.
Your landlord must follow a legal process that involves going to court to evict you. They cannot force you to leave and could be guilty of an illegal eviction if they do.
Throughout the process you have the rights of an assured shorthold tenant and have to pay rent as usual.
