Hi,
Have a question and was wondering if anyone knew the answer. DH and I are due to sign a lease on a new flat. We currently live in a different city to the flat we're moving to. The agents are insisting that we must both travel to their office to sign the lease.
This is going to cost us a far amount in train fares and we also can't bring our DD with us (10 months and doesn't travel well). We have a babysitter but it will be very inconvenient for us.
Is there any reason why we both have to sign the lease in person? I've offered to sign the lease in front of witnesses here and send a scanned copy to them or send it down with my husband along with relevant ID, bank statements, etc.
Is there any way around this? Thanks
