What if I lose my home? Eviction and repossession advice

Not repaying your landlord or mortgage lender could lead you to lose your home.


  • Repossession is when a mortgage company takes your home because you have not paid
  • Eviction is when you are made to leave a rental property

These are both a last resort. But there is a serious risk if you do not pay what you owe.

Keep in touch with the lender or landlord if you have rent arrears or mortgage arrears. They can look at your options with you.
