Fixed Term Tenancy Agreement Template
Fixed-term AST wording is familiar to many landlords, but new England tenancies from 1 May 2026 generally use the assured periodic framework.

What replaced the old fixed-term starting point?
Short answer: choose the agreement by property location and how the home will be occupied. From there, compare the Standard, Premium, Student, HMO / Shared House and Lodger options, or choose the separate agreement for Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland.
Fixed-term tenancy agreements were the familiar starting point for many England landlords before the 2026 changes.
For a new tenancy, Standard and Premium agreements now use the current assured periodic framework. Choose between them according to the level of management detail you need.
