How to end your tenancy
You must tell us if you intend to leave your home and end your tenancy. If you don’t do this, we will still charge you rent until we can legally take possession of your home.
If you want to end your tenancy, you must give us a minimum of four weeks’ notice. This must be in writing, and your four weeks’ notice must end on a Monday.
In rare cases we may allow you to give us less notice. You will need to have talked to your housing officer about this in advance. We might do this if you are moving to another City of Lincoln Council home.
When you have given notice that you are ending your tenancy, you cannot withdraw that notice. You should never give us notice to end your tenancy unless you are certain that you are moving out.
It is very important that you tell us that you intend to leave your home and end your tenancy. You must give us four weeks notice - if you do not you will still be charged the four weeks rent even if you have moved out.
If you wish to do this in writing,, please use the following address if you want to serve a notice on us:
