LEGAL MATTERSBROUGHT TO YOU BY DEVINE & CO SOLICITORS, WHITBY

’

WhaT you need To knoW When RenTinG a hoMe

The stl crt vrmt s prvtg sm ppl frm gttg tr ft t sg lr, wl trs r lg ff frm bg rr t s wt tmrt s bfr vstg prprt. As a result of the current uncertainty more and more people are opting to rent. But while rentingmight seem like the simple option it is absolutely essential to get expert legal advice before signingany tenancy agreement in order to understand what you are legally entitled to and to avoid many of

the pitfalls involved. When it comes to signing a tenancy agreement prevention is better than cure. Most tenants don’ttake advice until matters have reached crisis point and they nd themselves evicted or their rightsabused.It’s vital to consult a solicitor before you agree to your landlord’s terms so that they can explain your

rights and duties as a tenant and ensure that your tenancy agreement reects them. Advice from asolicitor may help to save you money in the future. A tenancy agreement is a contract between you and your landlord. In England and Wales there is nolaw that requires landlords to provide a written tenancy agreement, but it is always advisable to ask for one - even if your landlord is a friend or family member. Otherwise, if you have a about the terms

of your tenancy, it is your word against theirs as to what has been agreed.Solicitors can deal with all areas of Landlord and Tenant Law and are skilled in settling disputes.They will explain the different terms and guide you through the different types of tenancy agreements. Disagreements between tenants and landlords can be avoided with the right legal advicefrom the start. If any of your landlord’s terms seem unreasonable or inconvenient, your solicitor cantell you how best to go about raising these concerns.There are several types of tenancy agreement. Of these, the two most common types are the ‘assured

shorthold’ tenancy and ‘assured’ tenancy.If the tenancy agreement you are considering is relatively straightforward, you will probably only

need one meeting with your solicitor to check the agreement through.

Your solicitor will then send you a letter to summarise the advice they have given you.If your landlord has given you a written agreement to sign, bring it with you to your solicitor. Yoursolicitor will go through it to check that it is legal, explain the basic requirements of the agreement;and warn you of any pitfalls.

Terminology

Assured short hold tenancy.This is normally for six months. You have no right to stay at the end of the tenancy period agreed if

your landlord has given you valid notice to leave. Your landlord will need to obtain a possession order before you can be evicted. Assured tenancy

This is often used social landlords. Provided you comply with the agreement you can stay as longas you like. Ideally, you should contact your solicitor before you agree the terms of a tenancy with your landlord. This will give you the chance to check whether the terms are fair and legal before youcommit to them.
