Hi All, Seasons Greetings.
In April my tenants have 6 months left before I put the (commercial) property on sale. They knew from the outset that I would be selling it in due course and have been contracted out of the LTA 1954 right from the beginning of their tenancy (and also when an extension was granted to them).
I've recently lost faith in my legal bod, he never gives me a straight answer, (maybe he honestly doesn’t know and farms my work out to someone else?) Anyway I would appreciate some info please so that I know what to expect.
Should the Notice to Quit take the form of a nice letter reminding them to vacate on the day after the lease ends or should it be a formal notice (like a S25 or whichever is applicable in this case).
My presumption is that since they are opted out, a formal notice isn’t necessary but I really would appreciate advice prior to conversing with the legal bod again. (Forewarned is Forearmed, my Dad used to say).
Thanks and Best Wishes to all for 2013.
