Was wondering if there was anyone who could help me with this problem?
Have been living in my private rented house for almost 2 years. My lease is up on the 24th April. As luck would have it, we are now in a position to buy a house and so have been looking at houses to purchase. I have spoken to the letting agent regarding going on to a rolling month by month contract, once the current lease is up instead of signing another 12 month contract.
The landlord has replied that she wishes me to sign another 12 month contract, she would consider a 6 month break clause written into the contract. She says her tenancy insurance does not cover periodic rental agreements?
I am anxious now at finding a house but being stuck here with x amounts of rent to still pay.
So, can this be legally enforced? Or can I just not sign another contract? Would she then take steps to evict me? As if house buying wasnt stressful enough!!
Thanks all in advance.
