The tenancy does not just expire at the end of your fixed term agreement.  The tenancy turns into a contractual periodic tenancy, meaning that it automatically continues on a "rolling" basis.  If you wish to end the tenancy, you will need to give one months notice in writing, which will start from the day that we receive it.  If you want to leave at the end of your fixed term, you will need to give your notice 1 month before the expiry date.

When we have received notice that you wish to end the tenancy, we will confirm this in writing, and send you details of what is expected when handing the property back.  Towards the end of your notice period, we will contact you to arrange an appointment to inspect the property and collect the keys.

If the Landlord wants their property back, they will instruct us to serve you with 2 months written notice.  We will inform you by telephone and deliver the notice to the property. 

A notice of possession may also be served for breaches of the tenancy agreement, or non-payment of rent.

If one of the named tenants wants to leave the tenancy, a new agreement will need to be drawn up and further referencing checks may need to be carried out, to ensure affordability.  All original tenants remain jointly and severally liable for the terms of the tenancy agreement, until a new one is signed.

If you would like to add somebody to your tenancy, referencing checks will be carried out for all parties, and a new tenancy agreement will be drawn up in joint names.

A fee of £50 (including VAT) will be charged for any amendments to the tenancy agreement.
