REFERENCES

References will be obtained by an external credit-referencing agency. Please contact the office for further details.

Preliminary Payment

A preliminary non refundable payment is required before the processing of the application and preparation of documentation. If the tenant withdraws from the proposed agreement or references are known to be unsatisfactory then the preliminary payment will be forfeited. However if the Landlord withdraws, the preliminary payment will be returned to you in full minus the credit reference costs if incurred. Upon receipt of the Landlord’s approval of your references and execution of the Tenancy Agreement, the preliminary payment will be offset against the monies due from you on the signing of the agreement, namely the first installment of the rent, the Tenancy Agreement fees and dilapidation’s deposit.

CARD PAYMENTS

Please note that card transaction will incur bank service charges; please contact the office for further details. Unfortunately we are unable to accept American Express or Diners cards.

DEPOSIT

A security deposit of six weeks (cleared funds only) will be required against unpaid bills and dilapidations.

UTILITIES

Gas, electric, water rates, council tax and telephone accounts must be transferred into the Tenant’s name at the commencement of the Tenancy. Please note it is the tenant’s responsibility to ensure that this is completed.

TENANCY AGREEMENT

A charge is required for drawing up contracts; please contact the office for further details.

INVENTORY CHARGES

The Tenant is responsible for the cost of the inventory checkout at the end of the Tenancy, payable at the commencement of the tenancy.

RENT PAYMENTS

We would like to make all tenants aware that rent will be due by the contract tenancy date every month or quarter. Standing orders will be set up to ensure this, however due to banking delays standing order mandates will be set up four days in advance of the rent due date.

MOVING-IN MONIES

Move-in monies can be paid by bank transfer or debit card only (subject to a bank service charge). The payment must be in cleared funds prior to your move-in date.
