Residential Security

Designed for legal practitioners who require a thorough guide to the law surrounding security of tenure, this volume deals with protection from eviction, security of tenure under the "Rent Act 1977" and the new regime under the "Housing Act 1988". Additionally, the text contains a full discussion of assured shorthold tenancies and tackles the lease-licence distinction, with particular reference to multiple occupation. Coverage is given to the substantial amendments made by the "Housing Act 1988" to the "Protection from Eviction Act 1977" and the "Rent Act 1977". Throughout the text the author ensures that recent case law on all aspects of the subject is noted and considered.
