Myself and dp are currently on benefits as we have a DD who is 2 and DP recently lost he's job. Because he lost he's job we moved out of our home into my mums untill we could find a cheap flat to rent as HB didn't cover the rent of our house.
We have now found a cheap flat to rent however the LL will only give us a six month contract with six months rent upfront, we have found the six months rent upfront thanks to FIL however I don't know much about 6 month tenancies and was wondering are they the "norm" when your on HB?
Also does that mean the rent will be increased on a 6 month basis rather than yearly? Still quite new to renting so any advice will be great!
