Most contracts will have a hidden clause that if you sell the house to your tenant the agency get the standard estate agency house selling fee (1-2%). So yes.Was there a clause in the letting contract that made all that secrecy necessary? Surely the letting agent had already had their fee for finding a tenant, and if the landlord and tenant fixed up a sale between them because they already had contact with each other, then I don't see that that constitutes the letting agent "finding" the buyer. Or is that hopelessly naive of me?
For BTL landlords.... there's probably a good market in "try before you buy" to get a tenant in, who either buys it or gets a S21 after six months.0 -

In fact, I should be out at a market now, but couldn't be bothered as it's a 15 mile tortuous route journey and it closes at 2pm.... so I'll go tomorrow.... Monday I've got stuff arranged; Tuesday's the inspection day .... so I could leaflet Wed-Fri theoretically ..... Wednesday make the list. Thursday go leafleting.
I'd only have to leaflet 1/4 of any road probably ... only one side's the right orientation; terraces I'd be leafleting the two ends only.
PN, if you need leaflets printing, email them to me and I will print them for you and post them to you.We don't do too badly on the cupboards, garage, loft and outbuildings front. Where we fall down though is on the ability not to buy carp in the first place or to sell / give / throw it away when no longer needed.
This describes my household too.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

As for posting .... I think there's a chance we'll be in close proximity at some point in the coming days.
Well, yes, but I didn't know if you'd have them ready to email in time for that!Do you know anyone who's bereaved?

We had noodles, basil-flavoured tofu and assorted veg for dinner. One of the things I can eat most of hte time at the moment. Very nice, too....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0

Although I can sound like a slob ... I'm actually clean living.... I just do bits and bobs along the way, all the time.
