They are extremely difficult to understand and seem full of contradicting terms. However there is now a final draft of a Law Commission report and if the proposals therein become law it will result in a total shake up of the system.

This came into force in the Housing Act of 1988 ( mortgage rates ) and covers rules regarding rent levels, damage liability and rules regarding pets, etc., this is a basic agreement, easily available from stationers and is often in slightly different forms and commonly altered by the landlord to suit varying tenancies.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up your repayments on a mortgage or any debt secured on it. Security by way of a charge on your home may be required.
