Remove any fixtures and fittings you have installed, and put right any damage caused.
❏ Disconnect and remove all appliances, such as cooker, washing machine, fridge (unless they belong to Eildon Housing Association).
❏ Disconnect and remove any light fittings and lamp shades (unless they belong to EHA), and leave the connection in a safe condition.
If you have installed a shower with EHA’s permission
If you want to take the shower with you: Ensure that the remaining parts of the installation are left in a safe condition, and finishes repaired to the original condition.
If you don’t want to take the shower with you:
We will inspect it. If it meets EHA’s current standard and is in an acceptable condition, it can be left.
If you have fitted additional wall tiles in the bathroom or kitchen and they are in poor condition, they must be removed.
Carry out obligatory repairs identified by Eildon Housing Association
Before you leave, we will arrange to visit you to:
• discuss any matters relating to the condition of the house, and what you need to do
• identify any other repairs that are your responsibility
If you then carry out repairs and
the house falls short of the required standard, we will recharge you for the cost of any work required.
Leave the house in reasonable decorative order
If the decoration is broken, chipped, torn, stained or marked, the areas affected should be redecorated.
Provide us with your forwarding address
If you can’t hand the keys in at our office when you leave, we will offer an alternative arrangement.
RIGHT OF SUCCESSION
A tenancy ends with the death of the tenant. If you die, then certain people living with you have right to take over your tenancy.
This is known as ‘succession’. Succession rights are detailed in Eildon Housing Association’s policy on succession, which is available on request.
