If you are private renting and expecting a rent increase you should 100% question it if you think the increase seems far fetched. We received an email from Mathew Petit declaring our rent based on market value was looking at around a 30% increase £290pcm extra which is absurd. We were told to make an offer if we declined this amount but it would have to be ‘close’ to feed back to the landlord. Fortunately I have a contact number with my landlord direct which they were unaware of, so following a conversation with him it was the first he had heard about it and was not happy they had done this. I would be very cautious if you end up in a similar situation as I would say there is some foul play behind the scenes with this company. We have received an apology from them but the fact this happened in the first place is disgusting.
