Changes to your Tenancy Agreement

Your tenancy agreement is a legal contract that you sign when you rent a property from Newcastle City Council. It sets out the terms of your tenancy making it clear what you are responsible for and what the Council are responsible for.
We’ve been working with Newcastle City Council to make changes to the tenancy agreement so that it better reflects tenants’ lives and priorities. Last summer Newcastle City Council tenants received a ‘Preliminary Notice of Variation’ and were given the opportunity to tell us what they thought of the proposed changes.
