What is meant by a Tenancy Agreement?

A Tenancy Agreement is a contract that serves as an Assured Shorthold Tenancy between a Tenant and a Landlord, with all stipulated terms and conditions about their rental Agreement.

There is no need to get a written Tenancy Agreement as long as the fixed period tenancy is more than three years; in this case, it can become an Oral Tenancy Agreement. However, it is strongly recommended that there be a written agreement so that all terms and conditions can be clarified and used as proof in case of any dispute.

There are many forms of Tenancy Agreements available, and all of them should consist of the following aspects:

Dates: The exact date when the Agreement was prepared
Landlord Details: It contains all the addresses and other details about the landlords.
Tenant Details: It contains all the addresses and other details about the Tenant (s).
Property Details: It contains all the addresses and other details about the property being used for renting.
Term: The starting and ending date for tenancy. Sometimes, this is also called a “fixed term.”
Rent: This is the rent to be paid by the Tenant to the Landlord. This may also contain the method and the exact date of payment of rent.
Deposit: This part contains the total amount of the deposit that needs to be deposited and what things this deposit will cover.
Deposit Scheme: This part consists of a Tenancy Deposit Scheme in which the deposit is usually secured.
Landlord’s Obligations: This usually contains the responsibilities and duties of the Landowners.
Tenant’s Obligations: This usually contains the responsibilities and duties of the Tenant towards his Landlord and property.
Other Special Provisions: This usually contains other special provisions agreed upon between the Tenant and Landlord, for instance, pets, sub-letting, smoking, etc.
Signatures: It’s mandatory to sign Tenancy Agreements by both the Tenant (s) and the Landlord (s).
Witnesses: Though it is not legally necessary to have any witness sign the Agreement, it can be beneficial in cases where the signatures can be disputed by the Tenant(s) or the Landlord(s).

The guidelines for what should be mentioned in a Tenancy Agreement can be found in the Housing Act 1988.
