Please Beware of sale and rent back cowboys

 

 

It has come to light that a few bad operators in this market have been putting profits before being fair and ethical. For most people that have sold their home and want to rent it back their most pressing worry is the security of tenure. Many rent back operators give only Assured Short hold Tenancies.After the fixed term of the contract is up, the landord can ask the tenants to leave. But there are few other contracts that protect the rights of the landlord.This obviously leaves the tenant vulnerable to eviction even if they wish to stay in the property. There is currenlty no way around this problem. companies who operate, usually forget to tell the tenants this minor detail..

 

Sell and rent back schemes do offer an important service to those people who want to release equity, escape repossession, or sell quickly to emigrate or move. Rogue operators could just get the tenants out and sell on for a quick profit. Most Sale and Rent Back operators take a long term view and do not intend to sell. For these operators having a tenant who treat the house like they did when they owned who intends to stay for a long time sell and rent back tenants are ideal as they mean few rental voids and maintenance issues. These landlords see their houses as an asset that will go up in value over the long term and as such are happy to commit to tenants who wish to stay.

 

Homeowners who are thinking of entering a sell and rent back scheme should be made aware of the dangers and talk in detail with the person who is buying their property. Homeowners should ask for references from previous clients who have sold their home and rent back.

 

One company with good ethical standards and solid references is RentBack Direct.Contact them regarding rent back and you will not be dissapointed.
