ASSURED SHORTHOLD

TENANCY
AGREEMENT
for letting a residential dwelling

Important Notes for Tenants

• This tenancy agreement is a legal and binding contract and the Tenant is responsible for payment
of the rent for the entire agreed term. The agreement may not be terminated early unless the
agreement contains a break clause, or written permission is obtained from the Landlord.
• Where there is more than one tenant, all obligations, including those for rent and repairs can be
enforced against all of the tenants jointly and against each individually. Where the tenancy is
subject to deposit protection then joint tenants may have to nominate a lead tenant to act on their
behalf with the Landlord or Tenancy Deposit Scheme provider or their alternative dispute
resolution service provider.
• If you are unsure of your obligations under this agreement, then you are advised to take
independent legal advice before signing.

General Notes
1. This tenancy agreement is for letting furnished or unfurnished residential accommodation on an assured
shorthold tenancy within the provisions of the Housing Act 1988 as amended by Part III of the Housing
Act 1996. As such, this is a legal document and should not be amended without adequate knowledge of
the law of landlord and tenant.
2. Prospective tenants should have an adequate opportunity to read and understand the tenancy agreement
before signing in order for this agreement to be fully enforceable.
3. This agreement may be used for residential tenancies of three years or less. Agreements for tenancies
of a longer duration should be drawn up by deed.
4. Section 11, Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 - these obligations require the Landlord to keep in repair the
structure and exterior of the dwelling, and to keep in repair and proper working order the installations
for the supply of water, gas and electricity and the installations in the Property for space heating and
heating water. Section 9A of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 requires the Landlord to ensure the
Property is fit for human habitation at the start of the tenancy and during the tenancy.
5. Section 196 of the Law of Property Act 1925 provides that a notice shall be sufficiently served if it is
sent by post in a registered letter (if the letter is not returned undelivered) addressed to the Tenant at the
Property or the last known address of the Tenant or left addressed to the Tenant at the Property.
6. This agreement has been drawn up after consideration of the Unfair Contract Terms Guidance
published by the Competition and Markets Authority.
7. If you accept a tenancy deposit under this tenancy, it must be protected by a tenancy deposit protection
scheme and certain documents must be given to the tenant. Take advice if necessary.
8. Where the tenancy becomes a periodic tenancy at the end of the fixed term the Tenant is required to
give at least 28 days’ notice (or one month in the case of a monthly tenancy) in writing to end the
tenancy. The Tenant’s notice must end on the first or last day of a period of the tenancy in accordance
with the common law rules. The Landlord is required to give at least two months’ notice in accordance
with the statutory rules prescribed by Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988 but the Landlord’s notice
does not need to expire on the first or last day of a period of a tenancy. N.B. Notice periods may be
extended during the coronavirus pandemic under special transitional rules.
9. Clause 4.3 does not prevent the Tenant from working from home provided that the Tenant is not using
the Property as their main business address and that this home working is incidental to the Tenant’s use
of the Property as residential accommodation.
