A Tenant's Guide

 

It is important that prospective tenants understand what will be required before leasing one of our landlords' properties.

Prospective tenants should consider the following:

Before Viewing a Property

Our landlord clients specify certain requirements before they will agree to let their properties. Potential tenants should consider the following:

  • Are You On Housing Benefit? If so, we regret that none of our landlord clients will currently let to tenants on housing benefit
  • Are You A Smoker? Do You Have Pets? Different landlords have different requirements. You will need to check with us before viewing a property

Viewing a Property

Subject to satisfactory completion of the questionnaire and if we believe the property will be suitable for you, we will arrange for an accompanied viewing.

Applying for a Lease

Once you have found a suitable property, you will require to complete an Application Form. We will require all your personal details as well as your consent to carry out a credit check. The costs of this will be detailed at the time.

The Lease

Your Lease will explain the relationship between you and the landlord. It is an important document and you may therefore wish to take independent legal advice before signing it.

First Month's Rent and Deposit

The Lease will specify that at least one month's rent must be paid in advance. You will also be required to pay a deposit at the time you sign the Lease.
