Private Tenancy Reform

 

SAL’s Private Residential Tenancy video

 

As we mentioned in our previous post, any private tenancy created on or after 1 December 2017 will be a private residential tenancy. The new tenancy will replace the assured and short assured tenancy regime (although existing ones will remain in place until they are ended.) To find out more about private tenancy reform see Scottish Association of Landlords’ Private Residential Tenancy video.

The Scottish Government recently published new documents about the new Private Residential Tenancy:

• Scottish Government Model Private Residential Tenancy Agreement

• Easy Read Notes For The Scottish Government Model Private Residential Tenancy Agreement

• Private Residential Tenancy Statutory Terms Supporting Notes
