landlord cancels contract of agency

hey me again

just wanted to know, what happens if the landlady gets out of the contract with the agency you signed the contract with.
Is the contract still valid?
And if they broke the contract in some parts, is it still valid?

thanks a lot for your help

You have signed the contract with the landlady, not the agency. The agents are just that- the agents, the representatives. The landlady has a separate contract with them, for some services- which should not affect you at all, unless there is something specific in your tenancy agreement which involves the agents, like holding your deposit. So go through your tenancy agreement carefully- if it does not refer to agents, fine, but if it does- tell your landlady that you want to amend it, in writing.

oh, and make use of the advice service which is most probably run by your student union. They would know local agents and can help more then remote, self-help website.
