Introductory tenancy

An introductory tenancy is a 1-year trial.

During this year:

  • You get some of the same rights as a secure tenant.
  • But you can be evicted more easily.
  • You can’t:
    • Take in lodgers
    • Make changes to your home
    • Swap homes with another tenant

We will do most repairs for you.

If you follow the rules in your tenancy agreement during the year, you will automatically become a secure tenant.
