RAS Landlord ending tenancy

    My landlord is withdrawing from the RAS scheme and I have been told two different things by two council staff. One said that I can get choice based letting and that when the time arises that I need to be out I could be offered a council house. Another staff member said I can only get RAS. This doesnt make sense to me, what if there are no RAS 1 beds available at the time?? Can anyone help please as I am getting mixed information from the same dept in the council. Thanks

    Hi,
    I'm in the same situation. My landlord is selling the property after 2.5years on RAS but I'm living here nearly 8 years. I received 196 days notice ending October. The house is currently sale agreed! I was told by the council that they will try and fine me another RAS house. I was told I can't go back on the housing list!
    Did the council find you another RAS house in the end?

    It's strange for a house to go sale agreed with a tenant living there unless it's a cash buyer.

    Not that that helps you, best of luck getting sorted.
