The number of homes in the county repossessed by landlords through 'no-fault' Section 21 claims has risen in the past year, figures released this week show.
Section 21 evictions have risen in Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin
Aaron Manley, director of Mannleys Estate Agent in Wellington, said:"The abolition of the Section 21 notice and the requirement for landlords to join an ombudsman to help settle disputes is great news for tenants who have issues with unfair landlords. "Since the Government first promised to do this in 2019, 61,000 households have had to face the courts and endure the fear, the panic, and the threat of homelessness that Section 21 evictions cause," she added.
The data shows some households became homeless due to rent arrears after difficulties with budgeting or making other payments. In addition, 38 households became homeless after the landlord decided to sell or re-let the property. The Shropshire Star reported at the weekend how estate agents have revealed they are running out of rental stock.
