Hello we currently have a property advertised for rent in England and one prospective tenant wants to take a 2 year fixed term to start with. I would normally say 6 months to start with, so we can each be sure that it’s suitable, make sure he pays the rent, is a good tenant etc. Is it normal for tenants...
