Types of Tenancy Agreement
Protected Assured Tenancy
If you were a council tenant when the housing stock was
transferred to mhs homes in 1990, you are likely to have the Right
to Buy your property, a protected rent in addition to the
rights of an Assured Tenancy.
Assured Tenancy
Most tenants will have an assured tenancy which will set out
repair responsibilities, how the rent increases, mutual exchanges
and how mhs homes can take action against a breach of tenancy.
Trial Tenancy
New tenants of mhs homes are normally given a
trial tenancy, and after 12 months if the tenancy has been
conducted satisfactorily, the tenant will be given an Assured
Tenancy. If the Tenancy Agreement has been broken we will
seek to end your trial tenancy or delay changing it to an assured
tenancy.
Assured Shorthold
These are usually granted for temporary accommodation only and
are for a limited term.
