Useless Letting Agency

[DevonshireDumpling1]

Hi all,

Viewed a property last Thursday and expressed interest. Sent application forms back along with all the required documents. Followed up with the estate agent (one week on) and they’ve told me that they’re waiting for references from the other applicant and then presenting to landlord for them to decide who they would like to enter into a tenancy with. Just think it’s poor service really that I have had to chase the LA for an update and they’re not updating me or AIBU?

Im afraid the agent is acting for the landlord, not you.

if you definitely want this property you need to be proactive and keep emailing and calling them.

I think this is what happens now. The landlord gets to look at all the applicants and choose who they want to rent their property too. DS waited a couple of weeks to find he was the chosen one.
