The Offer
All offers are submitted to the Landlord for his/her consideration. Acceptance of an offer should not be construed as a Contract & is subject to contract and references.
Holding Fee
Once an offer has been agreed a Holding Fee equivalent to one week’s rent is required. Once received the property will be taken off the market. This sum is deducted from the first invoice monies (please note that this money paid in advance does not constitute a tenancy or offer of a tenancy but is required as proof of your serious intention to proceed). If the Landlord withdraws from the transaction, the Holding Fee will be refunded to you. The Holding Fee will not be refunded in any of the following circumstances:
- Any of the tenants fail a Right to Rent check (it is found that they do not have a legal right to rent in England)
- Any of the tenants provide false or misleading information
- You decide not to enter into a tenancy agreement
- You fail to take all reasonable steps to enter into a tenancy agreement
Tenant Application/Referencing/Proof of Identity
All persons over the age of eighteen will be required to produce two forms of identification; either a Passport, Driving Licence, or Birth Certificate plus recent bank statement or utility bill showing their current primary residential address.
Each applicant will be required to complete an online referencing form and will be assessed for an equal share of the total rent payable for the property. Once the form is complete, our specialist tenant referencing company will contact your bank, employer/accountant, current landlord (if applicable) and will also complete a credit history check.
