Nesting


In Property Sparrow’s inbox last week:-

An e-mail from her lettings agent about her tenants in one of her studio flats. The young couple are expecting a baby in February. They are worried that Property Sparrow will want to give them notice. They want to stay there with their little chick.

This reminds her of what Margo and Bettie said on
23 July.

Property Sparrow replies to let them know that she will not be giving them notice. The tenancy agreement makes no mention of children: they have paid the rent without fail and by all accounts they are quiet and courteous to their neighbours. Do good tenants make good parents? Property Sparrow thinks so. She is pleased to be able to provide a safe little home for them.

On the first day of Autumn it's nice to feel that it won't be long before Spring is here.
