The tenancy agreement formulated under the assured shorthold tenancy agreement AST act contains the term “Assured” for two purposes. One, it “assures” the landlord that if the tenant causes any damage to the property or perform fraudulent activities with respect to the property, the tenant would be held responsible for the loss caused. On the other hand, the agreement also “assures” the tenant that the owner cannot dispossess the tenant on ingenuine grounds and without prior notice.
