Material Information The information provided about this property does not constitute or form part of an offer or contract, nor may it be regarded as representations. All interested parties must verify accuracy and your solicitor must verify tenure and lease information, fixtures and fittings and, where the property has been recently constructed, extended or converted, that planning/building regulation consents are in place. All dimensions are approximate and quoted for guidance only, as are floor plans which are not to scale and their accuracy cannot be confirmed. Reference to appliances and/or services does not imply that they are necessarily in working order or fit for purpose. We offer our clients an optional conveyancing service, through panel conveyancing firms, via Move With Us and we receive on average a referral fee of one hundred and ninety four pounds, only on completion of the sale. If you do use this service, the referral fee is included within the amount that you will be quoted by our suppliers. All quotes will also provide details of referral fees payable.

EPC Rating: C

Affordability In order to rent one of our properties, you will need to demonstrate that you can afford the rental payments. The test that we apply is normally that you must have a total monthly income amounting to 2.5 times the monthly rent or a total annual income of 30 times the monthly rent. For example, if the rent is £1,000 PCM, then you will need a monthly income of £2,500 or an annual income of £30,000. You should also advise us if you have any adverse credit history, as this could affect the results of the referencing checks carried out on all prospective tenants.

Deposits Fast and easy renting, secured with flatfair. A deposit is required before any tenancy can begin and this can amount to up to 5 weeks' rent, so some of our rental properties are available with an optional, No Deposit product, provided by Flatfair. When this is available, tenants can wave goodbye to costly deposits and it will be possible to secure your new home with a small, one-off check-in fee. When it's time to go, you'll only pay for damages or unpaid rent you are responsible for. Ask us for full details and don't worry, if you would prefer a traditional deposit, that is always available.

Application To proceed to rent one of our properties, you will have to complete our simple online application forms and upload some ID information. You will then receive a Holding Deposit Agreement and pay a Holding Deposit of one weeks' rent within our online portal. The holding deposit will be used as part of the first rent payment upon signing the tenancy agreement. The Holding Deposit Agreement will give you details of the circumstances that could lead to your holding deposit becoming non-refundable, as per the terms of the Tenant Fees Act 2019.

To proceed to rent this property you will have to sign a Holding Deposit Agreement and pay a Holding Deposit of one weeks' rent, which will be used as part of the first rent payment upon signing the tenancy agreement. The Holding Deposit Agreement will give you details of the circumstances that could lead to your holding deposit becoming non-refundable, as per the terms of the Tenant Fees Act 2019. We use an affordability calculator of an annual income equivalent to 2.5 times the annual rent. If you do not meet this criteria, you may need a guarantor. You must answer questions about credit worthiness (ie CCJ's). A payment of one months rent plus a deposit of up to five weeks rent will be required to move in. We offer tenants the choice of a standard up front deposit payment or a deposit replacement scheme with a payment equal to one weeks rent. We are members of the RICS CMP scheme and the PRS redress scheme. Whilst every care has been taken to prepare these particulars, they are for guidance purposes only. All measurements are approximate and are for general guidance purposes and they should not be relied upon. Potential tenants are advised to recheck the measurements. Please note that lettings agents are required by law to publish on their websites information for potential tenants about relevant fees, redress schemes and client money protection schemes (including the names of those schemes). Relevant fees must also be published on third party websites, such as Rightmove. For properties to rent in England and Wales, details of the agent's membership of any redress scheme and client money protection scheme must also be published with their fees on Rightmove. It is the agent's responsibility to ensure that all relevant information is provided to Rightmove and is up to date and accurate. If the relevant information does not appear here, the agent may have included it within the property description.
