Get Swindon My Tenancy 2007-2024

Most tenants do not have a right in law to a written tenancy agreement. However, social housing landlords such as local authorities and housing associations will normally give you a written tenancy agreement.

You can only end your fixed term tenancy early if your agreement says you can or by getting your landlord to agree to end your tenancy. If your agreement says you can end your fixed term tenancy early, this means you have a 'break clause'. Your tenancy agreement will tell you when the break clause can apply.

Non-Secure tenancies do not have all the rights that secure tenants have including no: Right to Buy, Right to Exchange, Right to Succession, Right to Take in Lodgers or to Sublet.

A legal notice ends your tenancy and your right to live in your home. Joint tenancies will end for all tenants even if only one of you gives notice. You cannot withdraw a valid notice if you change your mind. Your landlord may agree to let you or other joint tenants stay on after a notice ends.

Assuming you are using the standard OpenRent contract that has a fixed term of 6 months and a break clause at 4 months, the break clause will work in the following way: Tenant or landlord will give notice to the other party on or before the 4 month point of the fixed term by giving 2 months' notice.

You're responsible for paying rent for your entire fixed-term tenancy. You can move out early without paying rent for the full tenancy if: there is a break clause in your tenancy agreement. your landlord agrees to end the tenancy early.
