    Our lease has expired and as the owners wish to move in we have been given 90 days notice to vacate our rented premises.  Do we still have to provide the 21 days notice if we wish to leave earlier than the date in the vacation notice?

    Technically, yes, but there are lots of conditions under which you can vary that.  Have a look at this fact sheet produced by Tenants NSW to see if any of them apply to you.

    However, I would be asking the agent if the owners really want the full 21 days or would they like to get in earlier.  It’s the kind of thing that can work for both parties and you may not need to get into the legalities of it at all … apart, of course, from having their agreement in writing to make sure you get the bond back in full.
