Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A fixed-term tenancy is created by an express contract, which is a written or oral agreement between the landlord (Sterling) and the tenant (Uma) that specifies the length of the lease and other terms and conditions. Deed refers to transferring ownership of the property and is not applicable here. Implication refers to a tenancy that is created based on the actions and behavior of both parties, which does not match the definition of a fixed-term tenancy. Sufferance refers to a tenancy where the tenant holds over the property after the lease has expired, which is not relevant to creating a fixed-term tenancy.
