We now offer comprehensive pre-repossession reports to solicitors and lenders throughout the North-East.

Pre-repossession reports (also known as ‘pre-eviction reports’ or ‘address intelligence reports [AIRs]’) are an excellent and invaluable means for repossessions and evictions to go as smoothly as possible without any sudden or ‘surprise’ elements of intelligence rearing their heads, resulting in the process being derailed and thus requiring rescheduling.

The reports are designed in the first instance to re-establish any lost contact between the lender and their borrower, to facilitate discussion between the two and to hopefully put forward any suggested settlement plans from the borrower to potentially delay said eviction.

Most importantly of all though, the reports are intended to get the important intelligence back to the lender so that an undisrupted and respectful re-possession can occur. We look to gather information for the lender on whether there are vulnerable people at the property that need to be considered along with children and pets that could be a risk. We list any high value goods sighted on visit and photograph the front and (if able) the rear of the property and we also highlight in advance any potential access issues that bailiffs and repossession agents will need to know about. Where possible we aim to have our report back to you within 48 hours of being engaged for service.

This service really is an invaluable asset to anyone looking to begin repossession and eviction proceedings against a borrower in default.
