Very long story short. We moved because of DH's work contract. We rented out our house for a year and rented another house.
We asked for a 12 month contract but were only given a 6 month one as apprently this is what they do as standard (large estate which rents out over a dozen properties). We're 4 and a bit months in, DH's work has changed and our tenant on our old house is suggesting that she might like to move out sooner than the 12 months.
Our tenancy agreement says that we have to give 2 months notice if we wish to leave at 6 months (the end of that tenancy). If we gave notice today we'd only be able to give six weeks - could we legally do this?
I am assuming that the fact that our tenancy agreement states a 2 month notice that's what we have to give (even if it takes us beyond the end of the tenancy). DH feels that once the tenancy runs out we can move and if they want to know if we're staying beyond that they should contact us and provide a new agreement?
Which one of us is right?
