Early Termination Request by Tenants

Some tenants are asking to end their tenancies early. During a fixed term tenancy, a tenant can not unilaterally end their tenancy; this can only be done by mutual surrender. Should a landlord be willing to agree to an early termination, they are within their right to charge the tenant their costs for sourcing a new tenant, should they wish.

Legal Certificate Due for Renewal

At present, legally required certificates should still go ahead, as long as your tenant is willing to give access. You must respect their decision if they do not want a contractor to access, but should keep a written record of your attempts to gain access, and the tenant’s refusal.
