Summary

RBS now refers to an Assured Tenancy rather than an Assured Shorthold Tenancy in its England and Wales answers on ground rent (5.14.9), sending tenancy agreements (6.6.3) and sending a copy of the proposed tenancy (16.4.2). The rest of the update is punctuation only.

Check the lender’s current requirements before you rely on this summary.
