Sorry,but I need to have a rant!
Trying to find another flat for me and my daughter (as me and my partner split recently).
She needs her own room,so I've been flathunting like mad.
Yesterday we saw a place which wasn't even fit for animals to live in,holes in the walls,holes in the carpet,and for that they wanted a grand a month!
So we viewed another place, a lovely house in a great area for alot less,recently built,absolutely lovely inside.
The problem? I am self employed,and although I can afford it and have all the documents to back that up,shining references etc it was no good,they need a guarantor.
The old in laws offered to help out by being guarantors,so far so good,they are retired but quite well off.
The problem? They are retired and not in ft employment! argh!!!
The letting agents told me that may pose a problem,but have asked them to fill in the required documents and they will see how it goes.
The problem? When I first viewed it they said I could move in,so I gave my curent letting agents my 1 month notice!
I am so stressed out at the moment that I feel like I'm going mad,if they decide that the old inlaws aren't good enough in their eyes to guarantee the rent,we'll be homeless in a month!
This is just not my day!
