Soft Market Test - Specialist Support Service for Landlords to Alleviate S.21 or S.8 Notices

Notice Description

Sheffield City Council is conducting this soft market test to understand the supply market for the delivery of a Specialist Support Service for Landlords to Alleviate S.21 or S.8 Notices. We are considering appointing a specialist provider to assist Landlords who are looking to serve notice on their tenants. The aim of the service would be to give landlords help and assistance they need to prevent a S.21 or S.8 notice being issued if at all possible. The service provider would require having a direct link with landlords for alerts to be raised with the council before any eviction action is taken; and allowing time and opportunity to with both landlords and tenants to help the latter remain within their rentals where possible and suitable to do so. The service provider would then act as a specialist and impartial service for Private Rented Sector (PRS) landlords.
