What is a written statement of contract?
A written statement of contract is a formal document that outlines the terms and conditions agreed upon between a landlord and a tenant. In England, this document is typically known as an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) agreement. In Wales, it is referred to as an Occupation Contract.
How do I obtain an AST or an Occupation contract?
The National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA) provides comprehensive documents for its members. We recommend using NRLA-approved documents to ensure compliance and clarity in your tenancy agreements.
