I am coming to the end of a contract with Leaders where they put a tenant in for me on a rent collection basis. I would like to terminate leaders involvement in this tenancy but they have said that as long as this tenant remains in my property they will retain an interest based on the terms of the tenancy agreement I entered into. So what can I do? The renewal is due in october, i have great relationship with this tenant and the only reason i involved an agent in the first place was becuase I was getting married at the time my previous tenant moved out and I couldn't be doing with privately securing a tenant and arranging a wedding! I realise your legal advice isnt free, but if you have any helpful links i would be most grateful!! thanks. Hi, I found this site whilst researching my own dilemma.
