rent

[UPDATE] Please note that fee quotes stated in historic postings may be out-of-date.


A tenancy agreement for three years or less can be created orally.

Therefore, even the provisional tenancy agreement has not been signed,

the lost rent can be sued if the existence of any oral tenancy is proven.


The facts that the tenant was not provided with the key, and that the

landlord did not receive any deposit are factors that the court would

take into account. These may be counted against any argument for the

existence of oral tenancy agreement.


Due to the limited information provided, the advice above is

preliminary. Please visit our website for further information about your

case.
