Hi all
We have just gotten an application for our rental from someone in the army.
We had stipulated to the realestate ...6 months lease (just so we can get a feel for tenant as we have been locked in 12 months with bad one before)
Anyway there is an application that the agent is very keen on, single man sargent from the army , has small dog and wants 12 month lease straight up with the option to break at any time if he is posted.
I have never heard of this before having an option for the tenant to break at anytime, i can appreciate being in the army that you do get posted from time to time and he did stipulate that he wanted security which is fair enough but just dont quite understand where i stand if tenants can put in there own options in the lease ? and i also need some sort of security that i wont be left with a empty house and loss of rent at anytime ? Just wanted some ideas on what others would say to this and were i would stand if we did give him a 12 month lease eg would he have to pay rent till another tenant found etc?.thanks
