I've had the same landlord for about 7 years (never met him but spoken on the phone)
I live in a block of 8 flats and the landlord owns about 6 such blocks all on the same road.
We pay the rent by bank transfer into his account but haven't had a new valid tenancy agreement for at least a year ( despite asking repeatedly)
I've now heard from a neighbour that the landlord has sold all the blocks and we are concerned as to what happens now.
I know my deposit is no longer protected as I received a letter from a company telling me it had been withdrawn from their deposit keeping scheme.
Landlord never answers the phone - you always have to leave a message and he never calls back.
Could someone please tell me what my rights are if I've been 'sold' as a sitting tenant with no tenancy agreement?
Could the new owner evict me? Could they put the rent up?
Any advice would be greatly welcomed
