read the notice to make sure it meets your needs. check that your occupation contract is able to have a section 173 notice created for it and check that none of the things that may invalidate the notice have occurred.
particularly, ensure that:
-
enough notice is being given
-
the notice has not been served within the first 6 months (or 4 months, if relevant) of the contract holder’s occupation of the dwelling
-
the landlord hasn’t breached any of their landlord’s statutory obligations
-
the notice isn’t a retaliatory eviction
-
the landlord hasn’t withdrawn another section 173 notice within the last 6 months
for more detail on all of these situations, see the section 173 notice. also, to make sure your notice is valid, ensure that:
-
the dwelling’s address and postcode in the notice are correct
-
all landlords’ and all contract holders’ names are included
-
the contract holders’, landlords’, and any agents’ or signatories’ names are spelt correctly
if you have any questions, ask a lawyer.
