Your tenancy agreement 

Tenant Sherril Lovell outside her home 


Your tenancy agreement is a contract with Barnet Council, which owns your home. It gives details of your rights and what is expected of you.


As a new tenant you will have an introductory tenancy for a trial period of one year. You then become a secure tenant.

Please note that you will be granted a non-secure tenancy if you are a new tenant moving into a home which is included the regeneration plans at Grahame Park, Dollis Valley, West Hendon and Stonegrove and Spur Road estates.

You can find out more about different kinds of tenancies here.

Changes to your tenancy agreement

We will write to you if we plan to change your tenancy agreement and ask you for your views. We will consider your comments carefully before making any change.

At least 28 days before any change takes place we will send you a ‘notice of variation’ explaining how the tenancy agreement will change and when the changes will come into effect.
