Depends on the terms of your rental agreement - what is your notice period?

From your limited information, if it was renewed yearly, strictly speaking, your current term would end on 31 August 2010 unless the relevant notice was given to vacate the premises earlier. If there is no notice period stated in writing, then what were your terms of your verbal agreement? Hope you have an independent witness to back you up.
