Frequently Asked Questions
A House/Flat Share Agreement is a legally binding and concise contract between the tenant and the resident Landlord in a furnished house or flat.
Under the agreement, the tenant will have exclusive occupation of his/her room and will share the facilities of the property (for example, bathroom, toilet, kitchen and sitting room) with other occupiers of the property.
No, they can’t. The Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations (1999) applies to all rented tenancies. As such any clauses deemed unfair could be unenforceable. This only refers to the standard terms of a contract (not clauses that have been separately negotiated). Examples of Unfair Terms could be penalty charges, exclusion by the landlord/agent of accepting responsibility for loss or damage to personal property and ambiguous legal clauses.
