Practical human support

Important

Landlord Buddy is instructed and paid by the landlord. Tenant Resolution is not independent legal mediation, legal advice, court representation or a tenant advocacy service.

Casework begins only after the scope, hourly estimate or cap, and the outcome linked to any success fee have been agreed in writing.

Rob’s case study

What could the two routes cost?

This is an illustration using current national evidence and the structure of a real negotiated outcome. It is not a promise that another case will finish in the same way.

ILLUSTRATIVE POSSESSION ROUTE

Approximately £13,583

Six weeks’ existing arrears
£2,009
27.1 further weeks without rent
£9,074
Legal and professional costs
£2,500

The 27.1-week figure is the England and Wales median from court claim to landlord repossession. Notice and pre-claim time can sit before it.

ILLUSTRATIVE NEGOTIATED ROUTE

Approximately £4,056

Six weeks’ arrears waived
£2,009
One further unpaid month
£1,451
Moving contribution
£350
Consultation + two hours + success
£246

The tenant leaves in about one month under a written outcome agreed by both parties.

Illustrative difference£9,527

Potentially around five months sooner than the 27.1-week claim-to-repossession median.

Assumptions and sources: England average private rent of £1,451 per month in July 2026 from the Office for National Statistics; 27.1-week median claim-to-landlord-repossession time in April to June 2026 from the Ministry of Justice. The model assumes no further rent is recovered and £2,500 legal/professional costs. Actual notice periods, court times, costs, recoveries and outcomes vary.
