Hi , my son has found a room in a shared flat ready for starting his course. It's a joint tendency with 7 others.
Here's where I'm getting confused. The property isn't available until the end of August but the letting agent requires rent and deposit in advance (£1200) but wants it now. Is that normal ?
My son has revived nothing more from them than an application form , I've yet to see an actual tenancy agreement.
The other problem is he doesn't find out if he has a place til the 16th and the agent is saying they want the £1200 now and it's non refundable if he doesn't get a place. Are they allowed to do that ?!
I'm hoping someone out there knows more about this than me and can help.
