• You may wish to give notice to an occupant and obtain possession;
• You may have a tenant who is failing to pay rent or breaking other terms of their tenancy;
• Your property may require repairs and you may be concerned as to how these will be carried out with a tenant in occupation;
• Your tenant may be complaining about defects at the property and you are unsure as to who is responsible for remedying those defects;
• Your tenant may be complaining about a neighbouring tenant and you are unsure how to deal with the conflict;
• Your tenant may have contacted the Local Authority about the property and you may be unsure as to how to deal with Local Authority Regulations or whether your property should be licensed/registered.
