    The OP said that the option D house was pretty much identical - didn't say it was nearby, though, so cost of moving may be relevant. However, there would likely be a period of overlap, which would make moving easier/less costly.

    I'd say - if you're looking for somewhere for the long term, definitely option D. Chance of a better landlord, more security of tenancy and £100 monthly saving are WELL worth the upfront cost and hassle.

    I would move. Why would you want to give even more money to a Landlord who has already provided poor response to repairs still hasn't fixed everything and wants £50 extra for the pleasure.
