Hi, me and my flatmates found a 4 bedroom house we wanted to move into for the second year so signed the contract, paid the agency fee and the damage deposit (£300). Then one of the girls decided to drop out of the house and left us to try and find a fourth person. However, after trying and failing to find someone and deciding we don't like the thought of having a stranger in the house, we have realized we would rather live in a 3 bedroom house. However, can we get out of our current contract and get out damage deposit back? We cannot afford to love £1,200 collectively but I can't see any other way out. Any advice would be so helpful, thank you.
