I think you should worry less about what's moral and more about what the best thing for you and Sally is; do you need the money more than a quiet life, will you be disappointed with yourself unless you attempt to avoid being screwed over, would pursuing the situation generate more stress than your current life situation can absorb?

Perhaps some people believe that ultimately, what's best for them is that they behave in a moral fashion.

Is supporting a letting agency's sharp business practices out of your own wallet really the morally right thing here?

Quite apart from which, there's a hell of a lot of value in being certain that your "moral" system supports what will keep you sane. Not all moral systems are designed with modern culture in mind, let alone the specific and often unusual needs of particular individuals or families; it's best by far to be flexible and willing to question your "morality". Which is the major reason I object to the use of the term "morality" in the first place.

That really has nothing at all to do with my point, and bears no relation to not only what I said, but also what I think.
