Commercial Rent Arrears Recovery (CRAR) is a legal process in the United Kingdom designed to help landlords recover unpaid rent from commercial tenants. This method allows landlords to instruct Enforcement Agents to take control of a tenant’s goods and sell them to cover outstanding rent payments.
In this guide, we’ll explore the CRAR process and demonstrate how West Country Bailiffs can assist landlords in managing rent arrears effectively.
Understanding the CRAR Process
The CRAR process involves a series of legal steps landlords must follow to recover unpaid rent. These steps include:
- Issuing a Notice of Enforcement – Informing the tenant of the outstanding arrears and providing a specified period for payment.
- Taking Control of Goods – Seizing the tenant’s goods if the arrears remain unpaid after the notice period expires.
- Selling Seized Goods – Conducting a lawful sale of the seized goods to recover the owed rent.
CRAR is subject to strict regulations, so landlords must adhere to the legal framework to avoid potential disputes or complications.
