Leaving flat before end of tenancy arrangements

In which case as it was a fixed term of more than 6 months so you would be liable for the council tax to the actual end of tenancy - in most cases people are liable but there are some cases where they are not and they cease being liable for the council tax on vacation (rather than the end of the tenancy).24 years fixed term contract with 12 months break clause, 2 months notice required.
"The tenant or the landlord as the case may be shall have the right to determine the term hereby created by the one giving to the other as the case may be not less than two months notice as adoresaid which shall not become effective at earliest before 5/6/17 and upon the the expiration of such notice this agreement and everything herein contained shall cease and be void subject nevertheless to the rights of the parties hereto in respect of any antecedent breach of any of the covenants herein contained."
CraigI no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.0 -
Just a wild guess but ..... 24 months seems more likely! Typo?
Otherwise advice as Craig says above + previous advice.0
