Q:I have posted about this before but I am still unsure. I need to move out of my flat by 31st July. I am looking for flats but most are with which I am trying to avoid fees and mostly as I have been getting local housing allowance since living alone in a flat I previously shared with a partner, I am also self-employed and building my business .

If i see a property I like, I dont want to tell the agents in case they reject me – but all agents differ in their vetting processes, and I am worried they will want to look at my bank accounts to see my income and will spot the money from the council…

I have not spoken with the council about my rights to withhold information from agents if I want to, but I wondered if any one can offer advice?


A:You do not have to tell any landlord or letting agent that you are receiving Local Housing Allowance.As your LHA is paid to you, your landlord will not find out, and as long as you have a tenancy agreement you can provide the council with, they should not need to contact the landlord.If a letting agent asks to see your bank statements, I don't know how you'd get round it. Depending on the nature of your self-employment, is it stretching the truth too much to say that the money from the council is directly related to your self-employment?
