Residential Property Introduction
Information contained in this folder is relevant to landlords letting residential premises and is also a useful resource for residential lettings agents.
Most residential landlords will use an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) for their tenanted property. Unlike some other types of residential tenants, a tenant under an AST has virtually no security of tenure. However, from 1st October 2015 some key changes are being made to assured shorthold tenancies in England (but they will not apply in Wales).
