But you must have normal Landlords as well surely ? If you going to pay all the money upfront place a deposit and put xxxx ammount of cash in a bank as a Guarantee then any rentor would be better off just buying the place on a Mortgage and it does somewhat defeat the object of Renting ,
Rentors should avoid them like the plague in my opinion as if they have a Guarantee can you imagine when you come out the rental the hassles on if that scratch on the sink was there before you took it or after etc..Specially when they have your open bank account to fleece .
bad news..
ps; How come in the Rugbymat forum , onlineamiga went over there and got a flat easy peasy with no bank accounts or anything ?
