Working with bailiffs or enforcement agents is often a daunting experience for charities and community interest companies. You have a duty to serve those you help but also a duty to ensure that the help can continue for others in need. Whilst it can be difficult to find a suitable partner, we believe that our values make us the right choice for your beneficiaries and trustees. We’re focused on doing the right thing, keeping our promises and putting people first in everything we do.
We work with a wide range of charities and are often recommended by the leading solicitors in the sector, who share our ethos of assessing the risks, preserving your reputation and delivering results for the benefit of our communities. We celebrate diversity at The Enforcement Agency and work closely with support agencies for a proactive approach to welfare.
We assist charities in recovering commercial rent arrears and peaceable re-entry where the tenant or borrower covenants are in breach. The process is relatively straightforward and involves our agents attending the premises to either recover rent or the property. We serve notices where required and our agents can attend in as little as 24 hours for re-entry in respect of rent arrears. Whilst there is always a risk of gaining peaceable re-entry to mixed-use properties, there are several instances where it is lawful to forfeit the lease in this manner. We can act as agents of the involuntary bailee and provide a wide range of security solutions.
There are an increasing number of license agreements being made in respect to residential property, including rent-to-rent and temporary accommodation hostels. We attend any medium to high-risk assignment to undertake a comprehensive risk assessment of the property and any occupants. We proactively work with agencies to signpost advice and support available to vulnerable persons. We also have bespoke solutions for service users causing distress to other residents. We believe that a home should be a place to enjoy without anti-social behaviour affecting our communities.

Unlawful subletting, squatting and criminal damage jeopardise the charitable work you do. We have a range of solutions to recover land and buildings swiftly and to deter it from happening again.
