What is a Tenancy Agreement Contract?

A tenancy agreement contract is a legally binding document between a landlord and tenant setting out the terms and conditions of renting a property in the UK. It protects both parties by clearly defining rent, deposit, maintenance responsibilities, notice periods, and the rights of each party.

Our templates are compliant with the Housing Act 1988 and cover all the required provisions for an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) — the most common form of tenancy in England and Wales. Templates are also available for periodic tenancies, fixed-term tenancies, and commercial leases.

Legal note: Landlords are required to protect tenancy deposits in a government-authorised scheme (Housing Act 2004) and to provide tenants with the How to Rent guide, a valid Gas Safety Certificate, and an EPC. Source: GOV.UK — Private Renting
