A tenant without a written contract is still entitled to all the statutory rights a regular tenant with a contract is, including water, heating, a safe environment etc. In a similar vein, the tenant is still obligated to pay rent on time and take reasonable care of the property.
To evict the tenant without going to court, you must give 'reasonable notice', either verbally or in writing. This is usually the regular period of rent payments; for example, if they pay rent monthly, the notice can be a month.
Tenants without a lease can be evicted if the landlord gives them 60 days' notice that the landlord or their family requires the premises.
If there is no tenancy agreement, a tenant cannot be given a section 21 notice for eviction. Instead, a landlord must use a section 8 notice (with a ground for eviction). To be able to evict a tenant in the absence of a written tenancy agreement, a landlord will need to apply to the courts for a possession order.
If there is no tenancy agreement therefore, then there is no authority for the landlord to make any deductions from the tenancy deposit no matter how dreadful the condition of the property when the tenant moves out. If he tries to make any deductions, any challenge made by the tenant will succeed at adjudication.
