Letting Agents

Never rented so asking advice for my lad from renters and rentees on here.

 

He's currently looking to rent a house, found one and applied with application fees of £200, advised they hadn't been accepted but application fee non refundable.

 

His girlfriend has had to deal with them as he works away and when I've checked the paperwork it does state the fees are non refundable which she had missed.

 

Is this normal? They seem to have been pissed around by these agents for the last 10 days.

 

Apparently there were around 15 people looking at the house, seems like a great money maker if they've all paid £200 non refundable fees.

I wonder what might have happened in the last 6 months to make them change their minds?

 

Whoops sorry - wrong thread.

Talk of the government clamping down on letting agent fees later today in the autumn statement

Aye, just said on the news now. Already banned in Scotland.

 

They appear ahead of us on legislation for house buying / letting; don't they already disallow gazumping?

Yes. I believe you put a bid in by a given date. Might have changed now though.

You can't pull out of a sale either in Scotland, so maybe Ryan should move there to avoid getting fucked over for a third time.
