I am in the process of purchasing a second property in the city where my daughter attends university. My daughter will live in the property and the other 2 rooms will be rented out to students who I hope to find via Studentpad. I intend to offer a fixed term tenancy from 1 Sep to end May as I or family members who live abroad may use the property in the summer months.
Is it correct that in such a situation the students will acquire part 4 tenancy after 6 months?
If so can I issue them the required 90 days notice prior to the end of the 6 month period on 27 February (which would line up with the fixed term : end date of 27 May ) in order to avoid part 4 tenancy being acquired?
