If you searched using older wording

Landlords still use AST terminology, but new England lets need paperwork that reflects the current assured periodic framework.

England only

Current position

England tenancy pages should use the post-Renters Rights Act 2025 wording that applies from 1 May 2026. Section 21 has ended for new private-rented possession notices, and the 31 July 2026 deadline to start a claim using a qualifying older notice has passed.

For a more focused explanation and the next practical step, read updated England tenancy agreement route.

Start with the tenancy you are creating

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.

Some landlords want to inspect a document immediately. Others need to understand what changed from older AST terminology before they choose. Both questions are answered here.

The worked example shows how a current agreement is structured. The comparison page then helps you choose between Standard, Premium, Student, HMO / Shared House and Lodger agreements.

Your choice should reflect the property, occupiers and level of management detail you need. Each product shows its fixed price and document contents before you start.

Terms you may see used for this type of agreement

Agreement names are not always used consistently. Whatever wording brought you here, check that the document matches the property location, who lives there and how the accommodation is shared.
