Renters right act - Agent not providing early surrender date. England
I served my notice on May 1 and my agent told me that 21 July would be the surrender date. Now he had previously told me it would be July 1 but anyways said it was a ‘misunderstanding’ and that he can’t let me leave till July 21, which is in line with the rent cycle.
Under the new law, tenants can ask for a shorter notice. I brought this us up to which he said the landlord has agreed to this in principal, subject to reasonable access being provided and a clean and tidy apartment being presented'. I said okay and have been complying with the agent for viewings and keeping the place tidy but he is not telling me when I can move out if I satisfy this very vague condition. Moreover, in the email from the property management team there is no mention of the possibility of an early surrender. I think he is being vague and leaving my hanging by a thread, how can he set such an ongoing-vague condition? Moreover I believe he is bluffing about an early surrender when he is not providing me a date in writing. What should I do?
