As soon as viewings commence, we will provide you with timely feedback. Once we have found a suitable tenant, we will then carry out due diligence and ensure the necessary referencing are in place.

5. Let Agreed

Once we have found a suitable tenant, there will be some paperwork to fill out before the tenancy can start, our trusted lettings team members will take care of this and guide you throughout the process. We will carry out due diligence and ensure the necessary referencing are in place prior to the tenancy agreement being signed.

6. Tenancy Agreement

Our next step is to draw up a tenancy agreement, which outlines all the exact terms of the contract between you and your tenant. We have a thorough template which fully covers all aspects of the tenancy. Our Lettings team will provide both you and your tenant, a copy to check and sign before the tenancy can begin. You will both receive a fully signed tenancy agreement.

7. Inventory

An inventory is a detailed record of all contents and the condition of your property, assessed and drafted by the company, this is typically carried out on the day of your tenant moving in. Although not mandatory, we strongly advise that an inventory is arranged and can recommend an impartial, specialist inventory company. Note that this will ultimately cover all aspects of the property contents and condition if damaged. Mid-term and end of tenancy inventory inspections can also be carried out to check that nothing is missing or damaged. A copy of the inventory will be provided to both you and your tenant. Fees apply.

8. Deposit

Before the tenancy starts, a deposit will be taken on your behalf from the tenant. Once we have confirmed receipt of this, your tenant can move in. If you have arranged an inventory, the clerk will make sure your tenant receives the keys on the day of moving in.
