What is it?

Assured Tenancy Agreements and Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreements are in themselves very similar documents. As a result of the similarity of their content as well as their names they can often cause unnecessary confusion to many people. With regard to the agreement itself, there are only a couple of significant differences between the two, primarily to do with the length of the tenancy and the protection granted to the tenant.

An Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement, is usually used with the intention of granting the tenant a tenancy for a shorter period!

If you wish to create an Assured Tenancy Agreement, this will have to be clearly stated at the top of the tenancy agreement. If such a tenancy is created, the tenant will have more security of tenure, in other words the procedure and amount of time required to end the tenancy agreement is much more complicated and lengthy than for an Assured Shorthold Tenancy. Ordinarily, Assured Tenancies are only created where it is the intention of both parties that the tenant should have possession of the premises for a longer time. To take repossession of an Assured Tenancy, the landlord will have to state very specific grounds contained within the Housing Act 1988. Therefore, such an agreement should only be created when it is intended to create a long-term tenancy agreement, granting the tenant extensive possessionary rights.
