Assured shorthold tenancies Sample Clauses

Assured shorthold tenancies. When you enter an assured shorthold tenancy – the most common type – you are entering into a contractual arrangement. This gives you some important rights as well as some responsibilities. This guide will help you to understand what your rights are, what responsibilities you have and what questions to ask. This will help you create a positive relationship with your landlord, but will also tell you how to get help if things go wrong. Take your time to read documents and contracts carefully. When you rent a home, people sometimes expect you to make a quick decision, or to sign documents before you’ve had time to think about them. You shouldn’t feel forced into a decision and it is important to understand the terms and conditions of any contract you are agreeing to before you sign it. Your landlord must provide you with a copy of this guide, so use the checklist and keep it safe to protect yourself from problems at every stage.
