tenancy agreements
2 Answers
Hi,
I signed a 12 month tenancy in Nov 2009. In March I sent an email asking if I could end the tenancy early and the landlord agreed to end it 31 May 10. However the property I was purchasing is not proceeding and I want to stay for the original length of the 12 month tenancy. Have I voided the original tenancy by asking for the termination?

In reality the only person who can answer that is the Landlord.
He can either agree to re~instate the original Tenancy (to Nov 2010?)
OR
if he is feeling awkward let you have a new tenancy which would take you up to May 2011(that is assuming the new tenancy to be 12 months as well).
Quite frankly it would be to his benenfit to allow you to just stay on as if you had not asked to end the tenancy early.
However,as I say,it's up to the Landlord really,and it's best to keep on his side by consulting him over this;but he has the last word on this so try and keep him happy!
Good Luck.

Landlord can not 'throw you out' without a court order. However, once you have given notice, if you don't go then landlord can double your rent after notice day (Distress for Rent Act 1737). If you disagree with the rent increase then landlord would be succesful in either a deposit claim or in 'Small Claims'. It could also be used to get a section 8 possession order if the landlord chose to.
