Petition Reverse provisions in Renters Reform Bill to remove Assured Shorthold Tenancies

Assured Shorthold Tenancies provides many private sector landlords the stability that we require to let our properties for a fixed period of time. We believe that removing this tenancy type will have an adverse impact on private sector landlords.

More details

There are many good landlords out there who invest a significant amount of money in the properties. Assured Shorthold Tenancies provide landlords with the peace of mind that their property and the costs associated with it provide a return on their investment, and creates safeguards for when tenants leave. We ask the Government to reverse the move to periodic tenancies and allow landlords of all property types to continue to provide fixed-term tenancies.
