A lot can change in 5 years. I think you are a little unrealistic expecting a guarantee on that.0

Either way, it sucks, because before renting, we asked the letting agent "any plans that would require us to move in the next 5 years?" and they went back to the owner and came back with a no. Which is WHY we moved into this place and not the other place we looked at .
A credit check doesn't tell you how much money someone has and he may be considering selling the property.
Using your logic, if you needed to move within the 5 years would you think it reasonable for your landlord to try and hold you to that?
We can all empathise with the difficult prospect of losing your home but maybe you just need to move on in every sense.Opinion, advice and information are different things. Don't be surprised if you receive all 3 in response.
