What is a Short Scottish Secure Tenancy?
This type of tenancy can only be created in certain circumstances. It does not enjoy the full rights of a Scottish Secure Tenancy such as right to buy and succession. It is also easier for a landlord to end this type of tenancy. If your Landlord is offering such a tenancy, they must give you a notice stating that your tenancy will be a SSST or your tenancy is being reduced to a SSST (this can be done if an Anti-Social Behaviour Order is taken out against you or a member of your household). This notice must also state the reason that the tenancy offered is a SSST.
