Secure Tenancy. We may end your tenancy if you break a term of this agreement by serving on you the appropriate statutory notice and obtaining a court order for possession.
Secure Tenancy. If you are an introductory tenant you will automatically become a secure tenant after 12 months, provided you don't breach the conditions of your tenancy. As a secure tenant you have the right, subject to meeting any applicable criteria or gaining any necessary approval, to: • Live in your home for the rest of your life as long as you continue to comply with the requirements of your tenancy agreement • Buy your home at a discount, after a qualifying period • Pass on your home to someone in your family living with you when you die, provided that you yourself had not succeeded the tenancy (subject to certain conditions) • Take in lodgers and sub-let part of your home (although you should note that this may affect any housing benefits that you are receiving) • Have your home repaired (some repairs are the responsibility of the tenant while others are the responsibility of the Council) • Carry out improvements to your home (subject to written consent from your council) • Be compensated for certain improvements you have made if you move home • Take on the management of your estate • Exchange your home with another tenant • Be consulted on housing management matters • Be given information about how the Council runs the homes that it owns You have the right to live in your home indefinitely, as long as the Council does not start legal proceedings to evict you. The Council can only evict you by following the correct procedure and getting a court order. The Council has to give you written notice, and prove a legal reason why you should be evicted before they can get a court order. If tenancy enforcement action is taken against you due to anti-social behaviour, this may lead to your secure tenancy being demoted by the court. This would reduce your rights as a tenant. A secure tenancy can be downgraded to a demoted tenancy. A demoted tenancy is very similar to an introductory tenancy. You have more limited rights and less protection from eviction than a secure tenancy. The Council has to get a court order if they want to downgrade your tenancy in this way. The court can demote your tenancy if you (or someone who lives with you, or visits you regularly) have behaved anti-socially or caused nuisance in the area, threatened to do so, or used your home for illegal activities such as drug dealing. A demotion order will normally last for one year, unless: • The Council starts possession proceedings against you • You leave your home (in which case you will lose the tenancy)...
Secure Tenancy. This tenancy is given when a property is let with exclusive possession (the tenant occupies the property on his/her own or with just his/her household) and the tenancy is not specified as an exception However, if you breach any term of this agreement, then we can apply to the Court for a possession order. As an Introductory Tenant, you have fewer legal rights than a Secure Tenant. The legal rights of Secure Tenants are set out in this Tenancy Agreement. The rights that do not apply to Introductory Tenants are clearly marked.
e A summary of rights to each tenancy type:
Secure Tenancy. If you have a secure tenancy, we will not interfere with your right to live in your home unless we have to take legal action to end your tenancy because you have broken any of the conditions of this tenancy agreement. However, we are not allowed to evict you from your home without proving our case in a court of law. If the court agrees with us, they will give us a court order that allows us to end your tenancy. Within the Secure Tenancy category are sheltered tenants. This tenancy is for designated sheltered housing and is the same as a secure tenancy except: • You are not allowed to buy your own home • You can only exchange your home with another tenant who is eligible to have a sheltered tenancy • We will not allow you to have lodgers or allow you to sublet part of your home.
