Tenancies run in periodic weeks and the notice period will start from the next Sunday following receipt of the written termination.
Once we've accepted your written notice, you no longer have any rights to the tenancy. Any requests to rescind the notice will be looked at on an individual basis and a decision made at our discretion.
Your tenancy will pass automatically to your partner if you die. This process is called succession. Your partner is defined as the person you live with - whether or not you're married - and includes same-sex partnerships.
Your tenancy can go to any relative who has been living with you for the last 12 months. They become a tenant with the same terms and conditions as your current agreement. We may ask them to consider moving to a more suitable property if the house is bigger than they need. A tenancy can't usually be passed on more than once.
We need to be notified if a tenant dies as their partner/relative will need to apply for succession. It is not automatically given.
A tenancy can only ever have 1 succession on it. However, if they are on a joint tenancy, they have the right to succeed the tenancy.
If the named tenant wants to pass their tenancy on whilst alive, this is called assignment and this has to be applied for and is not automatically given.
We may be able to help you stay with us.
