    I think it would be wrong to go back on the one you have already accepted.

    That's why we hesitated, however we hadn't signed any documents and he knew that we had already applied for another house. Considering he still had six weeks to find someone it asn't really a big deal.

    Id take the agent house, purely because from my experience private landlords can be a royal pain in the A. Great that you got a place so quickly this time!

    I dont know if its illegal to take your money before signing the lease....I paid a deposit of 2 weeks rent this morning to the agent and will sign the lease on Wednesday when I move intot the house...

    Widdly we were approved for a rental property 6 weeks before it was available. i was told that we needed to pay a full months rent within 48 hours of being approved, otherwise they'd have to advertise the house again i almost died as we had our rent due for the current place, as well as needing to pay rent for the new house... thank god for PIL!!!

    Ash where is the new place??
