    3. That the LL cannot raise the rent without giving proper notice and if you refuse, he can give you notice to leave. He cannot firce you to pay higher rent.

    OP said he will be on a periodic tenancy at the end of the month.
    As said, at that point the landlord will be able to force him to pay a higher rent by serving the correct notice.

    Our current tenancy agreement doesn't say anything about rent increases.

    He hasn't told us its up for sale, he had an estate agent come round to value it the other week but Ive seen it on the agents website!!!


    i would ring up the LL/EA and find out what's going on and what his intentions are.

    Take the higher moral ground :p
