Ending Tenancy Agreement Early
Summary
A tenancy agreement can be ended early if both parties agree, a break clause exists, or the property is uninhabitable. Document issues, report to the local council, and seek legal advice. If the property is deemed uninhabitable, the council may enforce repairs or allow early termination. Legal action may be necessary if the landlord is uncooperative. Contact local housing advisors or the Citizens Advice Bureau in Coventry for assistance.Full Conversation
I have asked to end early but not presented solid documents and a threat to pursue further action
If the property is in poor condition and you've already asked to end the tenancy early, you should:
- Document the issues: Take photos, videos, and keep records of any communication with the landlord about the condition of the property.
- Report to local council: They can inspect the property and provide evidence of uninhabitable conditions.
- Seek legal advice: Contact a local housing advisor or solicitor for assistance.
Have you reported the property's condition to your local council?
