Sole to Joint Tenancies

Generally Tamworth Borough Council will agree to the creation of a joint tenancy between spouse/partner. Each case will be considered on its own merits. Permission will normally be granted unless:  

  • There has been a breach of the tenancy agreement especially if this is due to rent arrears or anti social behaviour, where a Notice of Seeking Possession has been served, where proceedings have been commenced or where a Court has made an order for Possession whether this be Outright, Suspended or Postponed.
  • Spouse/partner is under 18 years of age.
  • Partner has lived in the property for less than 12 months.

Tenant’s partner/spouse must be able to provide sufficient evidence of occupancy.
