Acceptance of any offer will be subject to contract, referencing and immigration checks. You will need to pay the Rent and Deposit that is due under a Tenancy Agreement, or where the landlord is offering the property with a deposit replacement guarantee product, and you wish to take up this option, you will need to provide proof that you have purchased such a product by providing us with a copy of the insurance certificate before a tenancy can start.

Referencing and Right to Rent Checks - You will be asked to complete an application form before referencing can be undertaken, you should also provide an original photographic Identification (e.g. Passport, National id card, visa, resident permit, driving licence) and Proof of Residence (e.g. Original utility bill, council tax bill or bank statement all of which much be less than 3 months old). The need for a guarantor may not become apparent until your referencing (including references for any joint tenants) has been completed.

This is subject to referencing.

Holding deposit - In England under the Tenant Fees Act 2019 Holding Deposits are limited to the equivalent of one weeks rent. This is paid in order to reserve a property.

The Holding Deposit will be required to be paid once your offer is accepted. You will be provided with the rules of when this is to be returned to you or retained by the agent before this payment is made.
