Rent Distress

When your tenants are unable to meet their rent commitments as per the terms stipulated in the lease agreement, the law allows you – the Landlord to mitigate your loss through distress for rent.

Distress for rent allows a landlord to enter a tenanted property and to seize and hold goods found at the property until rent is paid. If the rent is not paid, the landlord is entitled to sell the goods and use the sale proceeds to pay off the unpaid rent.
