    I will certainly let the tenants know the situation and, for the record, I currently manage 8 properties for directors in my company so am fully aware of the implications. If I do not get any interest in a shorter let, I will simply move back into the property.

    Please do not imply I treat potential tenants in an appalling way when you do not know the full details of my situation or background.

    As you know, most LL and LA want long term tenants, but there IS a market for shorter term lets. I'm sure you will do the necessary research and make yourself aware of the inherent risks.

    I said it's appalling unless you tell them before they sign up :rolleyes:

    Still as you are aware of all the implications perhaps you could tell us how you manage an eviction to ensure the winter tenant leaves before the booked holidaymakers arrive, never know you may help someone.
