Good* everyone,

I have a lease agreement for a flat in VB that states that:

4. Should either party opt not to renew then they must advise the other party in writing not less than sixty (60) days before the end of the Lease Period or any extension thereof.

the agency sent me a mail 55 days before the end saying they do not want to renew unles I pay 30% more than the actual price. The owner is indian and lives in dubai but the agency is hassling me every single day with nasty phone calls. Do I have any rights? Please consider the nasty mobbing as well.

Sorry to hear that. Yes, they are true criminals and many people suffer at the hands of these crooks right under the view and full knowledge of the authorities.

Almost all estate agents are the same here. Your agents are simply twisting your arm since you did not tell them in writing your desire to continue with the lease. Have you given them any checks as insurance money? Send them an email that you wish to continue and to extend the lease by whatever period you want. Tell them you will approach the police if they continue with their mobbing. If they still continue, report the issue to Rental Disputes Settlement Committee located at Rawdat AlKhail Street and also to the police and they should help you out.
