Get help to stay in your own home

Your landlord, or their agent, has legal responsibilities to manage your tenancy fairly and to keep your home up to a decent standard.

We aim to prevent homelessness and investigate allegations of harassment and illegal evictions within Southwark’s privately rented sector. 

If you need advice, contact our tenancy relations team. 

They provide specialist advice on the rights and responsibilities of private tenants, landlords and agents. 

Contact us if you're being harassed or threatened by your landlord, or are having other issues with your private tenancy. 

Find out what to do if repairs that are the responsibility of your landlord have not been carried out.
