Referencing may be carried out by third-party providers. Additional information, such as guarantor details, may be required depending on circumstances.

A holding deposit may be required to reserve a property, in accordance with current legislation. The treatment of any holding deposit will be set out clearly during the application process and in relevant documentation.

Rent is usually payable monthly in advance. Tenants are generally responsible for utilities, council tax and other outgoings, unless otherwise stated in the tenancy agreement.

Where applicable, a tenancy deposit may be required and will be protected in accordance with Tenancy Deposit Protection legislation. Full details will be provided at the appropriate stage of the tenancy.

Zero Deposit Options

Some properties may be offered with an alternative to a traditional tenancy deposit. Availability and terms are subject to the specific property and landlord instructions.
