Hello,
I am a landlord for a short-assured tenancy in Edinburgh, and I’m hoping to get some advice.
The fixed period stated in the tenancy agreement expired a while ago, and it is now on a month by month rolling basis. I'd like to review the cost of the rent, but I am unsure of what is required from my side in order to be fully compliant with the law.
Is it acceptable to only send a letter to the tenants explaining that the rent will be increasing, giving at least 1-month notice – or will it be necessary to send a new short assured tenancy agreement along with all new paperwork that previously wasn’t required when the tenants originally moved in - such as the Tenant Information Pack, and Energy Performance Certificate – and thus incurring the additional costs of acquiring these documents?
thanks for any advice you may have!
