A dedicated podcast series from the Social Housing team at Hugh James. We talk about the latest sector developments and topical issues to help provide some practical guidance on all aspects affecting housing associations. We are lawyers so we will touch on the legal standpoints surrounding the topics, but don’t worry, we’ll keep the legalese to a minimum.

In this 10-minute podcast, we consider best practice to obtain access for repairs and situations where you should be decanting tenants. What can you do when an aggrieved tenant refuses access to carry out an essential repair or refuses to move for substantial works to be undertaken?
To help you understand when you should consider decanting a tenant, and your rights if a tenant refuses access for repairs, Eleanor Walters and Michaela Smeaton, Solicitors in the Housing Management team discuss the legal position.
