Got a property question that's been keeping you up at night? Every Tuesday, Rob & Rob are here to help. 

  • (00:33) Chris's letting agent wants to charge him a renewal fee for a tenancy that expires mid-April – just two weeks before the Renters' Rights Bill makes fixed-term agreements a thing of the past. With rolling contracts about to come in, is there any point paying to renew? He asks Rob & Rob whether he can push back. 
  • (03:43) Matt wants to find a good solicitor to help get his property deals through, but it's proved tricky. The local firms he'd trust aren't on his lender's panels, and the big nationwide ones that are, have let him down on service. He asks Rob & Rob how they go about finding reliable professionals to work with.
