Leasing Company Finding other Tenants while I’m Still Leasing
So the lease was supposed to end in september as per the original contract but it is my understanding that as per the new renters rights, it should roll on month to month. However, the leasing company that manages this property has been coordinating with me to show other potential tenants the property already. I have been cooperating when I’m available (2 viewings so far) but it has been awkward especially since I’m not sure if I want to continue staying here or not. Also, they had sent a section 21 a few months ago. This is the clause regarding viewing in the original contract:
“1.33. Permit Viewing
1.33.1. Permit the Landlord or anyone with the authority of the Landlord by reasonable prior appointment to show
the Property:
a. To potential tenants or purchasers during the last two months of the Tenancy or other period of notice; or
b. To potential purchasers in the event of the Landlord wishing to sell or otherwise deal with the reversion of the
Property with the benefit of the Tenancy at any time during the Tenancy.”
Need advice on how to handle it. Ideally I’d like the viewings to stop and avoid the whole mess of them finding a different tenant and get in a legal battle with the agency.
