The Tenancy

During the Tenancy

During the Tenancy period there are certain responsibilities you have as the Tenant in accordance with the Tenancy Agreement which you will have signed.

Rental Payments

The monthly rental payments must be paid on the specified date each month until the expiration of the Tenancy. The monthly rent is exclusive of utilities such as Council Tax, Water & Sewerage, Electricity, Gas, TV Licence and Telephone charges. Payment of these services is your responsibility.

NOTE: Failure to pay your monthly rent on time will be a breach of the Tenancy Agreement and may result in legal action.

Cleanliness & Damage

At the Landlord's request, we will arrange an inspection of the property giving you 24 hours minimum written notice, normally at 3 month intervals. You will receive a written report detailing any points which we feel need yours or the Landlord's attention.

You will be notified of any cleaning, damage or repairs necessary, if it is deemed that such items are not due to fair wear and tear. You will be invoiced for these works at the end of the Tenancy if you do not attend to them prior to this.

End of the Tenancy

10 weeks prior to the end of the Tenancy period you have the option to renew the Tenancy Agreement for a further period or inform us that you wish to leave at the expiration of the Tenancy.

Renewal

We may review the rent at this time in line with the current market price. Should both Landlord and Tenant wish to renew the Tenancy Agreement, we will produce a new Tenancy Agreement at a cost of £85 + vat to you the tenant.

Vacation

If either the Tenant or Landlord does not wish to renew the Tenancy Agreement for a further period, we will issue the relevant legal notice. We or the Landlord will attend on the day of vacation to carry out a Final Check-out comparing the condition compared to the original Inventory, allowing for fair wear & tear. We or the Landlord will also take final meter readings.

If there are any repairs or cleaning which need to be carried out, these will be discussed and agreed with you. The costs of these agreed dilapidations will be deducted from your Dilapidation Deposit. A charge of £50+vat will also be added to cover our administration costs of arranging any dilapodation works.

It can be very confusing if you are entering into a Tenancy Agreement for the first time, so please contact us if you require any more details.
