Concept to Risk to Memory to Check-up

How to study the four current units

Prepare each 30-question unit on its own terms, combine rule recall with short workplace application and keep law and guidance current for England and Wales.

Core concepts

Concept 1

Renewal planning begins with protection status, contractual dates, objectives, notices and the evidence needed for terms or opposition.

Exam cue: Maintain one renewal timeline showing lease, notice, response, application and negotiation milestones.

Concept 2

Landlord and tenant statutory notices serve different functions and must be coordinated with application deadlines.

Exam cue: Separate entitlement to a new tenancy from the terms on which it will be granted.

Concept 3

If renewal proceeds, the new tenancy's property, term, rent and other terms may be agreed or determined within the statutory framework.

Concept 4

Negotiation should continue alongside preservation of procedural rights, including any interim-rent or occupation issues.
