ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AGREEMENT. There are two main types of Council tenancy. ▪ an introductory tenancy ▪ a secure tenancy If you are an introductory tenant this tenancy agreement will be completed to show the date that your tenancy will become a secure tenancy, provided that there are no breaches of this Agreement. An introductory tenancy is a 12 month trial period to allow you to show that you are responsible to maintain a secure tenancy. To do this you must comply with the terms of this agreement, in particular the terms relating to: ▪ Anti-Social Behaviour; ▪ Payment of rent; and ▪ Maintaining the property As an introductory tenant you have fewer legal rights than a secure tenant, and you may be evicted more easily than a secure tenant if you breach this agreement. If you have transferred to this property from another secure Council tenancy, or from another registered social landlord then you will automatically be a secure tenant.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AGREEMENT. This is a tenancy agreement between you the tenant(s) and Haringey Council (“the Council”), concerning the letting of the property described on your tenancy agreement form. This booklet sets out the tenancy conditions of a Haringey Council secure and introductory tenant. It explains your legal rights, the duties the Council has as your landlord and the duties you have as a tenant. If you accept a tenancy with Haringey Council we expect you to: • keep to these conditions • Pay your rent on time • take good care of our property • have consideration for those living around you. Both parties to this Agreement have certain rights and obligations which are set out in this agreement. If you are a joint tenant, the term “tenant” refers to each tenant, or both or all of you. Introductory Tenancies From 4th April 2011 all new Haringey Council tenants have introductory tenancies. An introductory tenancy is for a trial period of 12 months before your tenancy becomes secure and you gain the right of a secure tenant. Unless we take action to end your tenancy or extend the length of the introductory tenancy during your trial period your tenancy will automatically become secure after the 12 month period. The maximum length of time an introductory tenancy can last is 18 months. After which time the tenancy will become secure if action has not been taken to end your tenancy. The tenancy will not be an introductory tenancy if you are already a secure tenant moving from one tenancy to another or if you are an assured tenant of a registered social landlord. In these cases you will remain a secure tenant. Introductory tenants have fewer legal rights than a secure tenant. You will get these rights when you become a secure tenant. The clauses that are affected are highlighted like this. Clause 4 Using Your Home Tenant’s Rights and Responsibilities You have the right to live in your home.

The property includes the garden, outside space and garage. We will refuse permission if the trade or business is likely to cause nuisance or annoyance to other people. You, or anyone staying in or visiting your home, must not use the property or let it be used for any immoral or illegal purpose. Thi...
