A step-by-step guide to each stage of renting a property.

Step 1. Register your interest

The first step is to register with us either by calling us on 01206 564700 or you can visit out office where you can discuss your property requirements with us.

You can even register online if you are short of time.

Step 2. Search, search, search

With a clear understanding of your requirements you will receive a selection of properties that match your criteria. In order to secure a property, we recommend an early viewing.

Step 3. Accompanied viewings

To maximise viewing opportunities, we are open at times to suit you.

We are open Monday to Friday 9am to 5.30pm and 10am to 4pm on Saturday.

Step 4. Selecting a property

Once you've identified a suitable property and supplied us with details of referees, references will be applied for and your information will be forwarded to the landlord for acceptance.

Step 5. Rental paperwok

Tenancy agreement

Once the landlord confirms that they would like to proceed we will draw up the relevant paperwork, forming an agreement to be signed by both parties.

Inventory

An inventory of the contents and condition of the property is usually produced prior to commencement of the tenancy. This will be supplied to both landlord and tenant.

Step 6. Rent and deposit

An advance rental payment is required prior to the commencement of the tenancy. A rental deposit is also required from the tenant. This will be reimbursed to you at the end of the tenancy, subject to the details of your agreement and the findings of the inventory check-out report. As per recent legislation, where relevant, your deposit will be held by a third party as part of the TDPS (Tenancy Deposit Protection Scheme).

Step 7. Completion

Congratulations, keys are now handed over and you can move in to your new home!
