Flat Viewing

[LeedsRhodesy]

i am living in a flat and on three occasions now the letting company have given us 10 mins notics that they is going to be a viewing on one occasions my girlfriend had been on nights and was still in bed. We don't move out for another 6 months, I have been told that they are not aloud to view my flat until 6 weeks before we move out, i just want to know it this is true

If you are still in contract then you arrange a time suitable for yourselves.

6 months?

Who views a flat now to rent that they won't be able to move into for 6 months?

Tell them to gtfo.

[Ironside]

yeah tell them its not suitable at the moment and tell them they can get access when its suitable to you

[kinboshi]

Are these people viewing the flat looking to buy it from the landlord?

[StuartHopkin]

Contract probably says reasonable notice for viewings etc, 10 mins isnt 24 hours probably is.

Yeah, 24 hours notice is always the figure I hear.

Yeah, 24 hours notice is always the figure I hear.

Yep, 24 hours notice is the legal requirement. If they insist, inform them that the 'unreasonable interruption'' is harassment, and you are being 'denied quiet enjoyment of the property'.

The agents are usually allowed access to the property at a time suitable to yourself, within the time period stated in the tenancy (usually the last month or two), anything outside of those time frames they can whistle for!

Thanks guys,

Since I am buying a house and will not be letting with this company when my contract is up I'm going to send them a letter saying they can start flat veiwings again 2 months prior us moving out
