The assured shorthold tenancy was introduced under the Housing Act 1988. It has continued to be the most common form of tenancy in the residential private rented sector.

This Second Edition of A Practical Guide to the Ending of Assured Shorthold Tenancies provides legal practitioners, managing agents, landlords and tenants alike with a practical overview of the law governing the termination of such tenancies in England.
