For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.If you rented your house through a letting agent, then I would contact ARLA (The Association of Residential Letting Agents) and ask them what your rights are conserning this. I have rented a couple of properties and would never let an inspection take place without myself or my husband being present. If there's a problem with the property at least this way they can show you what the problem is otherwise they could 'create' a problem and hold onto your bond money. I am sure an inspection could be arranged at a suitable time for you all.
