Is the Grant of Exclusive Possession a Tenancy?

In the first in a new podcast series on residential law, Jess Harrold is joined by co-host Elizabeth Dwomoh, barrister at Lamb Chambers, and guest Neelam Sharma, in-house solicitor at Walsall Housing Group Ltd, to discuss the difference between a lease and a licence, and the different types of tenancies.

Together, they address the main characteristics of Rent Act 1977 tenancies, secure tenancies, assured tenancies and assured shorthold tenancies, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.

In addition, they look at key contractual terms for each type of tenancy, and some of the issues that can arise in practice.
