hello 
I have an assured shorthold tenancy which started 21/11/2015 with a private landlord.It reads ( Assured shorthold tenancy agreement - the deposit protection service ). I paid 650 deposit in cash . The landlord never gave me a receipt for the deposit or any information about where it went. On my tenancy agreement it says “deposit not taken”
My tenancy agreement was renewed a year after the first , this one says “deposit taken 23/11/2015” . Myself and landlord signed this but the copy she gave me isn’t signed .Agreement lasted a year .
My tenancy hasn’t been renewed since so I assume this is now a periodic tenancy..
I would like to know where I stand in regards to eviction.
I received a hand typed letter posted through my letterbox . It’s a plain a4 paper that says “Notice if intention to sell 123 Abc road, no postcode ) I hereby give you the statutory 6 months notice to leave the property. Please leave by 2nd July .
It has my first name on it not my second.
It is signed by her
My tenancy agreement seems to have some sort of clause in it but I’m unsure what it means . It reads - Under the “Notices “ section it says “ the provisions as to the service of notices in section 196 of the Law of Property Act 1925 apply and any notices served on the tennant shall be sufficiently served if sent by first class post to the tennnat or left at the premises. This clause shall apply to any notices authorised or required to be served under this agreement or any act of Parliament relating to this tenancy “
It then saysthat the landlord gives notice that possession might be recovered on ground 1 of housing act 1998
what I want to know is if this “notice” can actually be used to evict me or if she needs to serve me a specific form with specific details (section 21/8)
I want to know if after the notice has expired if she can then go to court to start proceeding or if at the end of the notice she will have to serve me a propper notice and the period starts again before she can take it to co
