TENANTS RIGHTS

Is your landlord on his way back from Cyprus? If I were you, I would clean everything up super-clean and make it really tidy. Then explain the position your bro is in.

You are probably in breach of your tenancy agreement, so he would not have to give you any notice. Actually getting you out would be harder.

he is here already. he knows about the situation but mentioned it to me last night. as in "how muvh longer will he be staying". i said a month but i think he will need longer to get sorted out. how easy/difficult would it be for him to get me out ?

It depends upon the legal nature of the occupation; licence or tenancy, excluded or included - . The rental period, would in your case be 1 week. Notice requirements -

Post again if you can't work it out

Why dont you tell him the truth, pay him some extra rent while your brother is there,and give a firm date (and stick to it) by which your brother will be out. Otherwise, you may end up leaving what sounds like a good deal for you if you gain an extra few months by legal jiggery-pokery,and end up in somewhere much worse.

he already knows my brother is there and isnt happy about it. i just want to know what the legal position is. if he decides this evening to evict me how long would i have ?

depending on what ?? i dont have a proper lease for a start.

On what sort of tenancy that you have.

'Occupation' is clearer

Oops... Sorry.

Yes correct.

Perhaps the OP could clarify.
