Real estate agent called to say someone wants to buy nice flats I rent

My rent up for renewal in a few months...

I'm in the process of leaving a rented house to one I'm buying.

Not really any different to the UK, a house on the market for £750K would cost about £2K to rent.

This time next year I might buy, but for now I'll probably have to pay increased rent for a year, I can't see new owners actually living in it, that's certainly a BTL buy
