I’m new to UK and looking for a Long Let. I do interested in a flat after the viewing yesterday.
The letting agent said the current tenant will be moved out a month later, i.e. in the end of October. Then, the agent company will take a couple days for checking and cleaning. It’s expected that I could do the inventory check on 1 Nov, sign the agreement right after and move-in immediately. She said if I’m interested then the process could be started with referencing, paying holding deposit and preview the contract, etc.
Your advice is appreciated on the following:-
i) Do you think is there any chance that the flat would turn out not yet ready on 1 Nov, after one month of waiting?
ii) If I make the offer and start the process now, and meanwhile view and make offer for other properties. Is it ethical or not?
iii) If I don’t make the offer now, is there any chance that someone else will make the offer even it’s still occupied and the final condition / inventory / move-in date are a bit unsure?
Thank you for your advice in advance.
