The High Court of Justice made a winding-up order against Clear Housing Ltd on 20 May 2026, placing the Birmingham property management company into compulsory liquidation. Compulsory liquidation is court-imposed and distinct from a voluntary process resolved by the company's own members.
The case, numbered 001366 of 2026, followed a petition filed on 24 February 2026. The Official Receiver, Y Hill, was appointed liquidator on the same date as the order. The Official Receiver is a civil servant of the Insolvency Service who automatically takes office as liquidator following most winding-up orders of this kind. Hill can be reached through the Birmingham office at PO Box 16654, Birmingham, B2 2BJ.

The company originally traded as Clear Consultant Ltd from incorporation until 10 March 2017, when it adopted its final name.
Accounts held at Companies House were last made up to 31 July 2024.

The Insolvency Service publishes guidance on how to submit a proof of debt, the formal claim form through which creditors evidence the amounts owed to them.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Clear Housing Limited?
The court has placed the company in compulsory liquidation. The Official Receiver typically takes office as liquidator unless creditors nominate a licensed insolvency practitioner. Submit your claim using the Official Receiver's online proof-of-debt service or by post; details appear on the case page at gov.uk/insolvency-service. Read more about proof of debt.
Did you work at Clear Housing Limited?
On a winding-up order, employees are usually dismissed immediately. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The Official Receiver will provide RP1 case-reference numbers and the date of insolvency you need to start the claim. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Clear Housing Limited?
Customers rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Clear Housing Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the winding-up order is made. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions. The Official Receiver also has a statutory duty to investigate director conduct and report under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
