Hi,
I'm with Whiteknights letting agents & ive just signed my new renewal of tenancy, I then a few days later had a sign outside my house saying 'let' I checked my emails and had received an email saying that they would be placing one for 14days as this is part of the conditions for tenancy renewal. I told them I wasn't too happy with this & had never heard of them or any other agencies doing this?! She stated it was in the tenants guide (which when I looked through it was not) & said she would get it removed as soon as she could. She also said that MOST agencies do the same, which my last agency didn't! & I know people with various different agencies & they also don't do this, so just seemed a little weird to me & suspicious. I understand it's probably for advertising reasons, but I live down a tiny street of approx 10 houses in a small cul de sac, so seems a bit pointless.
If anyone's with Whiteknights lettings, please could you let me know if you have this every year you sign a new tenancy agreement?
