If you want to give notice and move out of your property as per your tenancy agreement, the following applies:
- If the tenant(s) intends to terminate the tenancy on the expiry of the fixed term, notice must be received in writing at least one month before the tenancy end date (If notice is late or not received the tenant(s) will become liable for a further month from the date the notice is received or the tenancy end date).
- If the tenancy continues as a periodic tenancy after the expiry of the initial fixed term, following the expiry of the initial fixed term the tenant(s) may terminate the tenancy by giving at least one clear calendar month’s written notice
Examples of notice.
Example 1 – You moved into the property on the 16th of March. You wish to move out at the end of your fixed term on 15th September. You need to give 1-month clear notice. So your notice has to be received by us before 16th August.
Example 2 - You are out of your 6 or 12-month fixed term, today’s date is the 16th of August, you hand in your notice the same day, and your notice period is one full month ending on the 15th of September.
If you are still not sure about how much notice you must give, please give your dedicated property manager a call.
