When leaving your property, you are required to leave you home in a good state of repair and decoration and clear out all your goods and possessions.

Should you leave your property in need of repair or cleaning, you will be charged for any costs that have been incurred to bring your home up to the standard required. You will also be charged for the removal and disposal of any items that do not belong to us left in the property.

Please note that your keys must be returned to the accommodation office. You will continue to be charged for the accommodation until such time as they keys are returned.

An assured shorthold tenancy agreement allows either the landlord or tenant to end the tenancy after an initial six month period by simply serving upon the other party a valid notice to quit.

If you want to move out of your home after six months there are a number of things you need to do. These are:

• give us four weeks' notice in writing;
• tell us the address you are moving to before you move out;
• tell us the date you are moving;
• remove all your belongings; and
• return the keys to us at the end of the four weeks.

If you have any questions please contact your accommodation officer.
