Deed of surrender or email advising leaving date?

Hi, we are in the process of buying a flat with tenants in situ. Their lease expires at the beginning of August. We have met them, and they said they plan to leave on that date.

Before we complete the purchase, we plan to meet the tenants again and are considering whether it is better for them to sign a deed of surrender for 1 August (even though we are not yet their landlords) or ask them to email us when we are there, confirming that they wish to leave on 1 August.

We are conscious of the Renters’ Rights Act from 1 May and want to make sure the tenants will vacate on 1 August, either by deed of surrender, email confirmation or any other way that Property118 readers recommend.

The reason we are happy to buy around April and keep the tenants until August is that they are currently students and are completing a course.

Also, we would have the flat available for September, which is a time of high demand for rentals.

Is this feasible?

Thanks,

Marie
