Renewal of Tenancy
3 Answers
We are just coming to the end of our initial 6 month tenancy and our landlord has not approach the subject of signing a new one, although they do seem very happy with us being here, would it be in our best interest to chase them for a new contract or wait until they approach us? As we do not want to be left in the learch!

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Once your 6 months expires, you automatically move onto a "Statutory Periodic Tenancy". This is exactly the same as your current agreement except you must give 1 months notice and your landlord must give 2 months notice (both ending on the same day of the month as the original 6-months ended).
If you are sure you want to be tied down for a further 6 or 12 months, than ask the landlord for a new fixed term. If you want flaxibility, leave things as they are, but bear in mind that this option gives the landlord flexibility too.

M-L gets ten out of ten
we call it a run-on tenancy in Manchester - 90% of tenancies in M are like this, a judge told me (erm when I was trying to get a tenant out)
the length of tenancy is the period of the rent in your case monthly
if you want security, then tell your landlord you want a tenancy for six months or a year. I always think this is in my tenants' best interests but virtually none do so.
