Tenants Information

New Tenant Requirements:

 

In most circumstances we require your income to be 3x the rental price. 

From all applicants we ask for valid Photo ID and a reference from a previous landlord, we may also ask you for a UK homeowner guarantor to strengthen your application. 

If you are working, we will ask for a reference from your employer and payslips or bank statements. If you are in new employment, we may also ask for a UK homeowner guarantor and/or previous employment references.

If you are self-employed we will ask to see your most recent business accounts or request an accountant’s reference, we may request a UK homeowner guarantor where there is no accounts history.

If you are a student we will need a letter from your college or university to confirm you are a student there and we may ask you to provide a UK homeowner guarantor. 

All applications to rent a property are subject to the final approval of the landlord.

  • Rent
