Certificated Bailiffs & Commercial Property

Warrant of Distress

A Certificated Bailiff is the most expedient and effective way of collecting Commercial rent arrears. If you are a solicitor, commercial landlord or an agent for commercial property and would like a Certificated Bailiff to collect your overdue rent arrears please call as we can help.

Simply complete by fax, e-mail or post the relevant Warrant and forward your instruction to our office for action. Warrants are available to download at the bottom of this page.

Upon receipt of your instruction your personal point of contact will confirm by telephone that recovery proceedings have been commenced. A bailiff will visit the premises and request immediate, full payment. If necessary the bailiff is able to seize goods for auction in order to discharge the debt. However, the normal course of action at this stage is to levy on sufficient goods to discharge the debt and associated costs, allowing the tenant a short period of time in which to settle the debt.

Should the debt remain unpaid after this period the bailiff will return and seize the goods for subsequent sale. At all times, we are conscious of the landlord/tenant relationship and act to collect the monies with the minimum of disruption.

Remember, the cost of executing a warrant of Distress is borne by the tenant.
