Question Title: Fixed term
| Question: 193 |
| What happens when a fixed term common law tenancy comes to an end?
|
| Answer: |
| Unlike assured tenancies, these fixed term tenancies terminate automatically. No notice to quit is required. If the tenant does not vacate the property then the landlord may start possession proceedings. If the tenant remains with the consent of the landlord, they become a 'tenant at will' and if the landlord wishes subsequently to obtain possession then the landlord must demand possession from the tenant before he starts possession proceedings.
