My dislike of real estate agents is heightened by the fact our place underlet, good for us, but absentee landlord for whom an estate agent manages. They under-let it, as the agents want to buy it!

I don't understand what you mean by underlet.

Do you mean the agent has beeen given the power to decide the amount of rent by the landlord and has taken advantage of the landlord by setting it lower than the market rate and is at the same time offering to buy the property at a-below-market-price?
