I want to leave, how do I end my tenancy?

break

You cannot simply walk out or you may have to pay rent arrears. You must notify your landlord and get their agreement in writing if possible to avoid problems. The length of notice will depend on your agreement.

You must:
  • Notify your landlord with as much notice as possible (the minimum notice should be on your tenancy agreement)
  • Arrange a date for when you will leave and the last date of occupation
  • Provide your notice in writing to your landlord and keep a copy
  • Leave the place in the same condition you found it to get your deposit back. (Wear and tear is not to be deducted from your deposit)
