Is the tenant entitled to receive a signed copy of the Tenancy Agreement?
A – It is an offence to fail to provide a statement of the terms of the tenancy within 28 days of the tenancy commencement, but this does not require the tenant to be provided with a copy of the tenancy agreement. However it is good practice for an agent or landlord to provide this. It may, in itself, be sufficient to satisfy the requirement to provide a statement of the terms of the tenancy.
