Property jurisdiction

Where is the rental property?

Select the property location to start the released standard agreement for that jurisdiction. Wales has separate fixed-term and periodic choices.

The selector offers standard products only. Specialist England agreements remain available from the England tenancy-agreement comparison pages.

If you searched using older wording

Searching for an AST replacement, basic tenancy agreement or standard tenancy agreement for England? For a new straightforward whole-property let, this is the assured periodic route. It is not the right route for Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, a resident landlord, a shared house or a specialist student let.

England Standard Tenancy Agreement: clear, current paperwork for a straightforward let

Choose this agreement when it matches the occupiers, property setup, deposit position, guarantor details and level of management detail you need.

Use this route when you are letting an ordinary whole property in England and want the agreement built around the landlord, occupiers, rent, deposit, guarantor and management details that actually apply to the let. It is a guided setup pack, not a static form to adapt alone.

The Standard pack keeps a simple let proportionate: the core assured periodic agreement, setup records, validation checks and a preview before payment. If you need more detailed management drafting, or the property is student-led, shared or within your own home, choose the specialist route instead.

Landlord Heaven is not selling a static wording-only form. It asks for the property, occupiers, rent, deposit, guarantor, and management facts, then builds a current England tenancy setup pack around those answers.

£24.99
Best when
The dedicated agreement for student households in England.

Lodger agreement preview

Lodger Agreement

£14.99
Best when
The room-let agreement for a landlord who lives in the property.

How it helps you
Gives the landlord a clearer room-let agreement for a shared-home arrangement.

Why a straightforward tenancy still needs a proper setup

A simple let does not need unnecessary legal jargon, but it does need the agreement, written information and day-one records to match the property and occupiers. This route helps you build a usable starting file around the facts you enter, rather than adapting older AST wording after the event.

The agreement should match the real let

Rent, occupiers, deposit, pets, access and responsibilities are easier to manage when they are set out consistently from the start. The wizard asks for these practical facts before the pack is generated.

Simple lets still need clean records

A deposit record, tenancy details and a clear inventory or handover trail are much easier to keep at the beginning than to reconstruct when a question arises later.

Older AST wording is no longer the right starting point

For new private assured tenancies in England, fixed-term AST wording is no longer the usual starting point. A clear assured periodic agreement is a better fit for a new straightforward let.

How the Standard pack helps you start clearly

The aim is practical: a clean, current agreement for an ordinary England let, supporting records that follow your answers, and a chance to inspect the result before you pay. It is not a substitute for legal advice where the arrangement is unusual or disputed.

It keeps the agreement proportionate

The Standard route is designed for an ordinary whole-property let, so the agreement remains easier for you and the tenants to read and use.

It gives you one guided starting point

The wizard gathers the property, tenants, rent, deposit, guarantor and setup details in one flow, helping the documents feel joined-up rather than pieced together.

England tenancy agreement FAQs

Straight answers on which England agreement to use, what it includes, and how it fits the current rules.

Choose this option when the let is a straightforward whole-property tenancy in England and you do not need the more detailed management, inspection, handover, and operational drafting included in the Premium pack.
It is designed for the current England assured periodic position and for straightforward whole-property lets. It is not a replacement for legal advice on an unusual arrangement, a company let, a resident-landlord arrangement, social housing, or a dispute.
Usually, yes. If you are creating a new straightforward private whole-property tenancy in England, this is the standard assured periodic route. Use the comparison cards if the let is student-led, shared, involves a resident landlord, or needs fuller management wording.
The pack centres on the Standard Assured Periodic Tenancy Agreement and includes the practical setup records shown in the sample viewer when they apply to the answers you give. You can inspect the sample and your own preview before payment.
Usually not. Student and HMO / Shared House lets now have their own England products, so this standard assured periodic option is best for ordinary residential lets that do not need specialist wording.
No. Courts do not pre-approve any notice, claim form, or agreement. This tenancy agreement follows current England rules and includes checks to help you complete it correctly.
A tenancy agreement can be legally binding when it is completed and agreed correctly. This guided pack helps you record the key terms, but you remain responsible for ensuring the facts are accurate and for taking advice where your arrangement is unusual or disputed.
For a tenancy created after 1 May 2026, landlords must give tenants certain written information about the key terms before signing the agreement or agreeing the tenancy. The wizard prompts for the relevant agreement information, but you should check that your completed pack and delivery process match your circumstances.
Usually no. Existing written assured or assured shorthold tenancies moved into the assured periodic system on 1 May 2026, but landlords had a separate obligation to provide the Government’s Renters’ Rights Act Information Sheet 2026 by 31 May 2026. This Standard route is for setting up a new straightforward tenancy.
