Setting up a tenancy in England covers creating a legally binding domestic rental arrangement between a landlord and a tenant, including the form of tenancy, the rent, and the rights and responsibilities of both sides. A solicitor drafts or reviews the tenancy agreement, checks references, arranges tenancy deposits with a registered scheme, and ensures notices, inventories and inspections are properly handled. They also guide compliance with right-to-rent checks and the transfer or renewal of the tenancy as needed.

“Elite Law were very efficient in the conveyancing of this flat purchase, pity the same could not be said of the seller's solicitors! However, we got there in the end and Elite kept us well informed and were willing to discuss matters by phone when needed. Would recommend them without hesitation.”
