LL ending fixed term tenancy agreement

Just wanted to check whether this is how its done. we have a ASH tenancy agreement for a 12 month period which is ending on the 30th june. The LL has notified us by email that the tenancy will not be extended. is that sufficient on her part to formally end the tenancy agreement?

Do you mean an AST in England or Wales?
What did this email say? What did you reply?0 -
No, it is not. Emails are not a formal notice that the landlord is seeking to end a tenancy. Only a court can do that.
It all depends on what outcome you are hoping for. If the landlord issues a Section 21 Notice this is only a statement of intent giving you two month's notice that they intend to apply to the court for possession. If a S21 is correctly served it will succeed in court. The only question is how long it will take and this is dependent on how busy the courts are.0 -
AST in england. email said succintly that tenancy would not be renewed. other extenuating factors that i dont want to go into on a public forum.
no response as yet from us. we would be willing to stay in the house but knowing her intentions we're resigned to the fact that we will be moving.0 -

Yes, but email could have contained a s.21 notice.
If T had acknowledge receipt the s.21 notice would have been deemed served.AST in england. email said succintly that tenancy would not be renewed.
Well until you are served with a valid s.21 notice nothing is going to happen.0 -
but email would have needed to contain the same information that would have been in a formal S21 notice right?0

sorry i was just tryng to confirm that was the case. the email did not refer to the address of the property, the tenants or the landlord. as such this would not class a S21 notice.0
