A Section 21 lasts as long as the tenancy lasts and does not expire after any specific period such as 12 months. I believe the Law Commission’s Rented Homes Bill was going to set a time limit on the life of Section 21s but as far as I am aware it never became law. I did also hear of a case where a judge threw out a Section 21 that was 2 years old but it was overturned at appeal. Any new or replacement tenancy would of course cancel the Section 21.
Does anyone know differently?
