How to Pay Your Rent

PLEASE THE ENSURE CASHIER QUOTES YOUR ADDRESS WHEN BANKING YOUR PAYMENT

How we can help

IF YOU ARE FACING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES 

Contact myself urgently as I will be able to advise you on the best course of action to ensure your tenancy remains safe and you are quickly directed to the best advice available.

IF YOU DO NOT PAY YOUR RENT 

Should you not pay your rent you can expect us to take swift action to ensure you bring your account up to date.

Once your arrears reach the equivalent of one full month’s rent you will be issued with two months notice to vacate the property. Only if we are satisfied that you have taken appropriate action to bring your rent account up to date we will consider allowing your tenancy to continue.

If you leave with arrears legal action will be taken at which address(s) you move too, and or against your guarantor, but action will continue until all of your arrears are recovered in full regardless of how long it takes

We will strive to meet your requirements at all times.

We are very confident you will be more than happy with my service, and we look forward to speaking with you soon.

Property Inspection

An inspection of your property will be undertaken one month from your move in date and as deemed necessary thereafter.

We expect the property to be maintained to at least the standard to which it was supplied to you on your move in.

Any damage to the following will be charged to you at the end of your tenancy-

  • Carpets not left as found 
  • Interior doors damaged
  • Rubbish/ unwanted furniture left at property
  • Uncompleted decoration
  • Missing/ lost door and window keys
  • Broken windows

If any of the above issues are found at inspection, you will be issued with a written notice to make good of these issues, if at the end of the deadline you have not done so the work will be undertaken and costs charged to you and your guarantor.

Loss Of Keys

Please note, lost keys will not be replaced, the only assistance we can offer is to arrange for the locks to be changed at a cost of £40 per lock which must be paid to the locksmith at the time of the visit.
