Leeds City Council has clarified the rules around leaving 'To Let' and 'For Sale' up after a landlord complained that not removing them amounts to 'anti-social behaviour'.

Janet Porter, who is the landlord for two properties in the city, said that despite numerous calls to her letting agent a 'To Let' sign was left outside of a flat that she owns three months after she had found a new tenant. The council has clarified that the signs should be removed within two weeks of a sale going through or a tenant being found.

'They said that to me and if I was younger and fitter I would take them up on this!' She said that a flat she found a tenant for a property she rents on Sandringham Way in December last year but the sign was not removed until this month. She said: 'This anti-social behaviour of letting agents is rife. What's annoying is that they are quick to put them up and very slow to take them down again.
