We often rent properties to people within a matter of days, so it is important to be aware of any costs and charges before finding the property you want to rent.
To protect both you and the landlord there are administration procedures that must be followed as part of the rental process. We have outsourced independent specialists who carry out these procedures for us. This means that in addition to the monthly rent you will be required to pay their charges once we have found you a home to rent.

Pre-Tenancy Admin fee per applicant (Referencing) - £114pp
Tenancy Agreement Admin Fee per Tenancy (Contribution towards Tenancy Agreement) - £96
