Contract

Before any property can be rented:

  1. All Tenants may be asked to pay an initial holding deposit and sign a declaration of intent to rent the property.

  2. All Tenants must sign a legally-binding contract named the “Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement” and pay any associated Tenancy deposits when requested.

  3. Each Tenant must nominate a Guarantor who becomes liable for outstanding payments if a Tenant fails to pay rent, costs, or other fees. All Guarantors must sign a legally-binding contract named a “Deed of Guarantee”.

Variation of contract

Should you wish to:

  • change the terms of the contract
  • change tenants, or
  • terminate the contract early

there will be a minimum administration charge of £50 plus any other costs associated with replacing tenants, deposit registration, credit checks, etc. These costs will be no more than the outstanding rent.
