Sometimes people move into a property but they should not be living there.  They may see an empty property and move in.  This is called illegal occupation or squatting.

It is also possible that the tenant has moved out and is sub-letting the property to someone else.  This is a property that we could re-let to someone who is waiting for a home.

We will investigate any instances of illegal occupation and commence the necessary legal action to remove any illegal occupiers from our properties.

You can help by reporting any instances to the Tenancy Services Team or by telephoning FREEPHONE 0800 9520193
