I've messed everything up. Homeless with 4 children.

[BowAndArrow]

I've been stupid. So so stupid. Please don't feel the need to tell me that. I could not loathe my stupidity more right now.

We've accidentally intentionally made ourselves homeless. We have to move out 4 days after Christmas. At the moment we have no where to go. No where. I have absolutely no idea what to do. The council obviously won't touch us because we put in our notice intentionally. Family isn't an option and no friends. No money to get another property. Am actually terrified. Totally terrified.

AIBU to think there must be a way to sort this out somehow? Please be kind.

I would definitely contact the Landlord direct.

Remember that a lot of agents get an agents fee from the new tenant whenever the tenant changes and it is their interests for this to happen as often as possible so don't assume that it is because of some vendetta against you.

The Landlord is the one who loses out if the property goes without a tenant for any length of time so it is in their interests for you to stay. Plus they may have to pay fees to the agents for getting a new tenant as well.

Hope today goes well for you, OP, and you make some progress.

I used to be a Lettings Manager and you can just retract your notice for the current property. Then if the Landlord still wanted you out, he would have to serve you two months notice. So this would at least buy you some time.
