PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

"Housing manager" from local council presumably??Oliver4 said:I moved into a property with my 3 children one of them being autistic I had all my checks done via the housing manager or so I thought paid a deposit and rent also received a 2 year fixed tenancy agreement settled in my new home which I had decorated and made our house a home ............
Entirely possible that housing manager did not know "landlord" was not owner and had no right to rent the place out.
Think you should go back to housing manager, explain matters, and get rehoused by him.1 -
