Fees

Deposit

Usually, a security deposit of a minimum of one month’s rent will be required. The deposit is held to cover damage, breakages, and any other liabilities under the terms of your Tenancy Agreement.

If the Tenancy Agreement has stipulated that you can keep a pet or smoke in the property, then we usually require a larger deposit.

(*Please note that under no circumstances can the deposit be used by the Tenant to cover rent.)

Please contact us for further details.

Insurance

1 Stop Lettings highly advise all tenants take out contents insurance. Your personal belongings are not covered under landlords’ buildings and contents insurance.

Requirement for a Guarantor

In some circumstances we may require that the Prospective Tenant is able to offer a Guarantor. This may be because: e.g. the Tenant is student; the tenant has a poor credit history; the Tenant’s income is not sufficient to cover the rent and other outgoings.

In order for someone to qualify as a Guarantor they must: be a resident in the United Kingdom; be a homeowner in the United Kingdom; have a clean credit history; must earn at least 3.5 times the monthly rent

The Guarantor will have to be referenced, and credit checked; provide proof of ID and residence.

The extent of the Guarantor’s liability is expressed in: the Guarantor clause and sub clauses in the tenancy agreement; the Guarantor deed.
