Dear [Tenant's name(s)],

Re: [Property address] — Arrears Remain Unpaid — Section 8 Notice Being Prepared

On [date of Letter 3], I wrote to you giving notice of my intention to commence possession proceedings if the arrears of £[amount] were not cleared by [deadline date].

That deadline has now passed and I have not received payment or heard from you.

Current Position

• Total arrears now outstanding: £[updated total]
• Arrears period: [months / dates]

Section 8 Notice

I am now preparing to serve a formal Section 8 Notice Seeking Possession(Form 3A) under Grounds 8, 10, and 11 of the Housing Act 1988. This will be served on you shortly.

Once the notice period has expired, I will apply to the County Court for a possession order and a money judgment for the full arrears plus court costs.

Last Chance to Avoid Court

If you pay the full outstanding arrears of £[total] within48 hours of the date of this letter, I will consider whether to delay serving the Section 8 notice. However, I am under no obligation to do so.

Please contact me immediately on [phone number] or [email address] if you wish to discuss this.

Yours sincerely,

[Landlord/Agent name]
