Tenant Additional Services and Fees

Holding deposit

To reserve a property, we will require a payment equivalent to one weeks rent.  This rent will not be repaid in the event the tenant withdraws from the application to rent, provide incorrect, or misleading information during the referencing process, fails a right to rent check or fails to sign the tenancy agreement within 15 calendar days, or alternative date if mutually agreed in writing.

Security Deposit/Bond

A security deposit equivalent to five weeks rent will be required.  This will be held as security for default or damage during the term of the tenancy in addition to any damages noted after the check out inspection is carried out. Any items left by the tenants within the property will be charged at a reasonable cost.

Amendments to Contract

A reasonable charge will be charged to the tenant if amendment is required to legal documents.

Change of Sharer

A reasonable charge will be made if there is a change of sharer during a tenancy.  This cost covers referencing of the incoming tenant, contract, right to rent checks (if required) and deposit registration.

Lost Keys

In the event tenants lose their keys they will be charged the cost of replacement keys.  If the services of a locksmith are required the tenant will be responsible for those costs.

Surrendering Your Tenancy Early

For a tenant wishing to end the tenancy early, we have a surrender procedure available with the written agreement of your landlord subject to their agreement.  A reasonable fee is charged to cover our costs to draw up the legal documentation required and to cover time for the additional work hours to process the request, including re-marketing of the property and coordinating with the landlord.

Pet Enhancement

In some instances there will be an increase in the advertised rent of £25 for any pets allowed into the property. There will be a fee to create an addendum to vary the tenancy agreement.
