Here’s one for you.
Me and my husband moved into a house 6 weeks ago, let through a letting agent.
On Sunday we were out for the day and were told by a neighbour that the landlord had come around, knocked on their door and started asking questions as to why the blinds were ‘always’ down (they’re not) and generally giving the impression that they’ve been observing us since we moved in.
I’m freaked out. The rent is paid on time in full, we’re professionals, good tenants, not house wreckers. I don’t expect to be watched by the landlord as I go about my daily life.
What’s the best way to put a stop to this nosiness? Should I just break the lease early and rent somewhere else? Would that affect my references for the next landlord?
