Your tenancy runs from Monday to Sunday, and it will continue to do so until you or we legally bring it to an end.
If you wish to end your tenancy, you must give us at least four weeks written notice to quit, ending on a Sunday. You will remain responsible for rent, reporting repairs and all the other conditions of your tenancy until the date your tenancy ends.

During the notice period we will arrange to visit your home and carry out an inspection. We will also give you the opportunity to raise any questions or concerns with us. If you have damaged the premises, or carried out any alterations or adaptations without our permission, we will give you the chance to put the work right. If you do not, you may be charged for the costs we incur in doing this work.
If you are a joint tenant, your tenancy can end if either of you gives Notice to Quit. This is legally binding on both of you, so if your spouse or partner serves notice against your wishes or without your knowledge you should speak to a Housing Officer immediately.
If you are going to be away from your home for a while but do not want to end your tenancy, for example if you are going into a nursing home or are likely to be taking an extended holiday, you should tell a Housing Officer. If you do not tell us you are going away, there is a risk that we may decide you have abandoned the property and that you do not plan to return. In this case, we are likely to start court action to take back the property.
The checklist below should help you organise your move out of your property. If you have any questions or concerns about any aspect of your move, please contact a Housing Officer.
