Document background
The Vacate Letter To Tenant is a crucial document in the English and Welsh residential letting process, used when a landlord requires possession of their property. It must be drafted in compliance with current housing legislation, including the Housing Act 1988, Deregulation Act 2015, and any temporary provisions under emergency legislation. The letter should clearly state the required vacation date, the type of notice being served (Section 8 or 21), and any relevant grounds for possession. It forms the first step in the legal process of regaining possession and must be served correctly to be valid.
