Tenancy termination

When a tenant dies their tenancy does not automatically end.
The council may need to serve a Notice to Quit (NTQ) on the property to legally bring the tenancy to an end. The Notice to Quit must always run from a Monday, with a notice period of 4 full weeks.
The notice period will start from the first Monday after we are notified of the death, unless otherwise agreed in advance.

Please be aware that once we have received this signed termination form you cannot change the decision to end the tenancy. If an approach is made to the Council’s Housing Options Team for help with rehousing once you have returned this form the occupant may be classed as being ‘intentionally homeless’ and may not be offered alternative accommodation.

Any items left in the property or gardens will be regarded as unwanted and may be disposed of. The cost of disposal will be charged to the deceased tenants' estate. Please note that if you are not an 'executor' of the deceased (named in a Will) any items removed from the property are cleared at your own risk.
