Hi, we recently moved to Dubai. Just found a place to rent. Signed the contract, gave 4 cheques for the whole year, 1 cheque for security deposit and 1 cheque for agents fee. Our moving date is 16th of this month however the agent still has'nt provided us with the landlord's signed copy of the contract, she says landlord will revert with the signed contract probably next week as the person responsible for signing is currently travelling but has agreed that if they don’t provide the signed contract this week then we can move into the apartment on the 16th at 9am irrespective. The date on the 1st cheque (rent for first 3 mnths) was 16th however my husband says he got a notification that the landlord had enchased two cheques for the first 3 month rent and security deposit today.He called his bank and they confirmed that it can not be cashed before the date on the cheque. However when he talked to the agent she says very conveniently that its a common process here the landlord can enchase the cheque 4 days prior.(which dint say in the contact) I am really concerned and having a panic attack right now. so a couple of questions * Can we trust them with rest of our cheques for the whole year ? * Can the agent actually pass on the cheques without even providing us with the signed copy of the landlord. * Can the landlord enchase the cheque before due date or before providing us with the signed contract copy. * Can they make any trouble when we go to the apartment on 16th ? The agent however, says that she will provide us with a signed official letter from her company certifying that we can still move in on 16th. I am sorry too many questions but if you guys can help me or let me know of any concerned person i can contact for queries. Thanks a bunch <em>edited by mochas on 12/06/2013</em>
