Common Law Agreement (March 2024)

• This tenancy agreement is for use where the tenancy does not fall within the terms of the Housing Act 1988 (e.g.because the rent is over £100,000 per year) and where the adjudication services offered by deposit schemes are not going to be used.

WARNING – if you use this agreement you must be aware that if the nature of the tenancy changes so that the Housing Act 1988 applies, the requirements of the deposit protection legislation will kick in. Before using this agreement you should take legal advice as to its appropriate use.
