Tenancy details
If you might be interested in booking one of our houses please email us (rdweatherall@gmail.com) with any questions and to check that the property is available. We would be pleased to show the houses to interested groups. Unannounced visits will be turned away.
Our houses are intended for groups of four students sharing a single tenancy. We will require student ID numbers and this will ensure that there is no Council Tax payable on the property for the academic year.
The houses are let under an assured periodic tenancy (joint contract) similar to the vast majority of student lets, and our tenancy agreement has been drafted using standard wording provided by the National Landlords Association.
The landlord is readily available to sort any problems that might arise during the year. The landlord is a member of the National Landlords Association. The houses have annual gas safety checks, mains wired smoke, heat and fire detection alarm systems and five yearly electrical safety inspections.
Our tenancy procedure has just a few elements.
A holding deposit of £150 per person is required to reserve the property for the academic year and will later be offset against the security deposit.
The security deposit is £350 per person (ie an additional £200 per person) and is payable prior to the execution of the tenancy agreement on 1st March and is refundable at the end of the tenancy assuming no damage to the property. The deposit is paid into the Deposit Protection Service.
We will require a signed tenancy agreement.
We will also require a signed parental guarantee to cover the rent and outgoings for each student. The parental guarantee is limited to a maximum of the individual student's own share of the rent.
Right to rent checks will be explained separately.
We would be very pleased to answer any questions that anyone might have.
