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 letting agencies 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?
