Brexit, thanks for your polite reply.

 no not At all. We gave 4 months notice as normal...not throw people out! Its 3 months in contract.

 

I just want to share with good intentions, if you want to rent out long term , be very thorough ( which i was not) specially if your are living outside the country. Its hard to control situations specially more when you are a thousand miles away!

Thread: Some problems with Long term rental

Just want to share a friendly advise to those who intend to rent their properties long term."-( in spain long term rent is around 6 months to 13 months , with a written contract)

please think very hard....- under spanish civil law , in my experience the tenants/renter are more protected than the property owner.

always hire a professional or a lawyer for contracts....better safe than sorry.

Our apartment was new, never lived in, thru good references we rented long term,...

the issues , troubles that goes with long term rent...is not worth The amount of money you get.

i would rather have my place empty, or rented as holiday weekly rent,,,,NEVER ever long term rent again.

 

Our renter had good references, was a co worker of my friend, paid rent on decent times. Sometimes delayed payment. When we decided not to renew the rental after a year, as we decided to use the apartment ourselves. we could  not force them to leave the apartment on time, until they can find a new home,( took another year us to  wait!) 

 

Pls be careful and think hard...(.more so if your tenants had children! )
