You will require the following documents to lease your property. Please use the following landlord check-list:

• Copy of Council Tax Bill.
• Copy of Land Registry.

• Copy of valid NICEIC Certificate.
• Copy of valid Gas Safety record.
• Copy of valid Energy Performance Certificate.
• Copy of valid Fire Risk Assessment (applicable for flats with Common Areas)

Remember, if you do not have a valid gas safety, electric, or Energy Performance Certificate, we can arrange these for you.

You will be advised of this prior to signing a contract and then following any scheduled rent reviews.  It will be set out in your contract and you’ll also receive monthly statements.

Your contract will explain when, how much and on what basis you will be paid.  This is usually monthly, by BACS. We will ask for your bank account details when you sign up.

If the property is required unfurnished, you will still need to supply the following items;

• Fridge freezer.
• Cooker and oven.
• Net and heavy curtains.or blinds
• Carpets or other suitable flooring

When void, the landlord is responsible for paying utility bills and council tax.

Your home will need to meet and be maintained to the Decent Homes Standard.  There are a number of options around how you do this: from taking on responsibility for all repairs yourself, to asking us to carry them out on your behalf. If you opt to carry out repairs yourself (or with your own contractors), we will advise you of the standards and timescales you will need to fulfil. Find out more about your options, here.

No, we do not charge commission or management fees. The rent agreed is the rent you’ll get.
