We are talking here about renting a private residence  from a landlord. Such arrangements are normally documented in a written  rental agreement which is freely entered into and signed by both parties  &#8211; the landlord and the tenant and is in accordance with the law. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Most such rental agreements are in a fairly standard format and clearly state  the circumstances in which either party can terminate the agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"848\" height=\"566\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nationaldebtrelief.co.uk\/debt-articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Fotolia_124074043_S.jpg\" alt=\"Bankruptcy and Insolvency\" class=\"wp-image-9844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nationaldebtrelief.co.uk\/debt-articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Fotolia_124074043_S.jpg 848w, https:\/\/www.nationaldebtrelief.co.uk\/debt-articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Fotolia_124074043_S-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nationaldebtrelief.co.uk\/debt-articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Fotolia_124074043_S-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 848px) 100vw, 848px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Such termination terms usually revolve around payment of rent, \nmaintenance of the property, notice of termination, grounds for \ntermination, behavior and so on. Provided the tenant adheres to the \nterms and conditions of the rental agreement, the landlord may not evict\n him or her except in strict compliance with the pre-agreed terms for \nsuch termination of the agreement. It would be unusual for such a rental\n agreement to include terms relating to the insolvency of the tenant \nincluding bankruptcy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the event of the tenant accruing rent arrears, the landlord would \nusually have grounds for eviction but only in accordance with the terms \nof the rental agreement and the law of the land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any tenant who is threatened with eviction solely on the grounds of \ntheir being bankrupt should seek legal advice to ensure that their \nrights are protected.
