Q.

How much deposit do you take?

A.

We take 5 weeks rent as deposit to be used against any damages/dilapidation at the end of a tenancy. This is the maximum that is allowed under the current laws. We also offer Zero Deposit options to tenants, who can purchase an insurance policy which saves them locking in a 5 week deposit for many years. This policy offers 6 weeks rent to be used in the event of any damages.  All tenants that take out this policy still have to pass our referencing and affordability checks as if they were paying a cash deposit.

Q.

With a let property, how often do I need to get a gas safety check done?

A.

You will need a qualified Gas Safe Register engineer to check every 12 months that all gas appliances, pipes and flues are in safe working order. We can assist with this. Your tenant must be given a copy of the certificate before they move in to the property.
