LETTINGS AGENCIES HAVE STOLEN FROM MILLIONS!

18.05.07, 12:03pm

The simple solution when dealing with lettings agencies is to withhold the final months rent, and leave the agency to prove their wrongful claims.

I have been involved with property maintainance for many years and seen many tenants robbed in this way, many have also followed my advice and not been robbed.

Unfortunately this allows some scum to evade their obligations but corrupt landlords and letting agencies who looked upon these deposits as a bonus have only themselves to blame!
