The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
We have come to the end of our 2.5 year stay at our current rented property. We we're given two months notice, (as is the norm) at the end of April and asked to vacate by the end of June. We have no qualms about any of this and we've had a good relationship with the landlord and letting agents. However, do we still have to give a minimum notice period before we vacate? Our contract states four weeks but doesn't stipulate as to whether this applies when we've already been served a notice of termination.
1.If you want to leave a property - you give your landlord 1 month notice.
It may be a good idea to send it recorded delivery to the agent's/landlords address.
2.If the landlord wants you to move out - you must be given two months notice and served the correct paperwork as mentioned by rbrears a Section 21 Notice.
You cannot be removed from the property without a court order should the 2 months lapse.
However,if your Tenancy is an Assured Shorthold Tenancy - the landlord will in the end get the possession order as a matter of right by virtue of type of tenancy.
In conclusion,as your landlord has given you two months to leave so you do not to give him any notice.
Notice period.
