I am looking to rent out my house. I've appointed an agent to manage the letting process but I will manage the property once we have a tenant as I will only be living 2 minutes from the house.
The agent has found a prospective tenant who has, without us even suggesting anything about pre-payment, offered to pay 24months of rent in advance. We don't know why he wants to do this. He says he will be based abroad for some of the year in a tax haven with the house being used by friends and family when he is not there.
Can anyone give me any advice about this, please? I'm wondering why he would make this offer, and I'm curious as to what implications this has on the rental contract, particularly regarding break clauses and our eviction rights.
