I rent out my place in BA through an agency - and although I would always ask for 1 months - 6 weeks deposit, to cover breakages etc (pretty average - 1 month is requested in London - in Switzerland it is 3 months), I think it is crazy that the agency wants all 6 months paid upfront - and a 20%...

Hi Tez, I have been through a similar process - whereby I bought an old PH, then with an architect and builders redesigned and remodelled it. It was hell - the initial budget the architect gave me was 50% less that the final price for remodelling and the time factor estimated was well below...

I use my hard waring eco-friendly supermarket bag, that is reusable. Much better than the plastic stuff they hand out by the dozen at Coto etc. I suggest that if supermarkets were to offer a bagging service then they should use these eco-friendly bags.

Thanks - it's kind of what I thought. However, I'm kind of worried by the 'what if...?'. Especially as she speaks limited English. And the visitors visa is automatically 6 months, or do they limit it, to say 3 or 4?

Hi everyone, Unfortunately, I will be off to the UK soon and have a beautiful PH (in Palermo) that I want to rent out to a couple who will love and care for it like it is there own. It is something I have designed myself and gone through the pain of refurbishing it, which took nearly two years...
