What happens after a possession order is granted?

If the court orders a repossession, it will set a date by which you have to move out. If you don't leave by that date, your lender or freeholder can ask the bailiffs to evict you. Even at this stage, it may be possible to stop the eviction.

If you don't remove your belongings, they will be left locked inside. You will need to make arrangements with your lender or freeholder to collect them later. You normally have to remove everything within a short period of time, for example, two weeks. If the sale of your house will not cover all the costs involved you may be instructed to leave some of your belongings for the lender to sell.

You may be able to apply to stop or delay bailiffs, particularly if you are ill or have young children and need more time to find somewhere else to live.

If you can raise funds or your situation has changed and you may be able to pay off the arrears, seek advice immediately as you may be able to stop the repossession.
