 HANSONS LETTING LTD – LETTING TERMS

REFERENCING

An application form must be completed by all prospective tenants & a form of identification (a Driving Licence or Passport) together with proof of current address must be produced by the prospective tenant. In some cases a Guarantor may be required & if this is necessary they will also have to complete an application form. The referencing company we use will need to do a statutory immigration check under the Right to Rent legislation. If there is any possibility of adverse credit being found please discuss this with us prior to you making the application as it will fail & be declined by the referencing company where undisclosed adverse credit is subsequently found. This will result in the holding deposit being retained by the letting agents.

SECURITY DEPOSITS

The security deposit is equivalent to five weeks rent (unless otherwise stated). This will be lodged with The Deposit Protection Service. It is returnable in full at the end of the term subject to a satisfactory inspection of the property. Deductions will be made for damage to the property or the contents & also if the property is not left clean & tidy then cleaners will be employed & the cost deducted from the deposit. No interest will be paid to the tenant on this deposit.

RENT

All rents are per calendar month exclusive unless otherwise stated.

We require one calendar months rent in advance – payments are then made by standing order.

RESERVATION

On completion of the application form(s) the property will be reserved following agreement with the landlord. The agreement should then be signed within 15 working days of us having notified you that your references are acceptable. After this period the landlord reserves the right to re-offer the property to other prospective tenants.

PAYMENTS

All monies are to be paid on the signing of the agreement prior to occupation. They should be paid by Bank Transfer, Cheque (if payment is made by Cheque this must be paid at least 7 days before the date of occupation to give the Cheque time to clear) or Cash.
