Tenancy Info
Administration / Agency Fee
There are no administration or agency fees
Holding / Securing Deposit:
Once terms have been agreed we will require a one weeks rent holding deposit to take the property off the market while we carry out the reference checks. This amount would be taken of the total amount needed to pay before moving in.
If the landlord or agency decides not to proceed with the rental or if the agreement is not reached before the deadline at no fault of the tenant, then the holding deposit is refunded to the clients. The holding deposit is only non-refundable if any false or misleading information is provided, if you withdraw from the agreement or fail to take reasonable steps to enter into an agreement. The deadline for the agreement is usually 15 days after the holding deposit has been received unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Tenancy Deposit:
We require a 1 month’s rent deposit to be paid prior to the commencement of the tenancy and if Varosi manage the property all our deposits are protected with the Deposit Protection Service (DPS) www.depositprotection.com
In some cases the landlord may require a 5 weeks deposit which will be informed to all clients prior to any deposit taken.
Early Termination
All tenancies are a legal binding agreement which is set for a fixed term, if for any reason you need to leave the property before the expiration of the tenancy you will be responsible for the term remaining within the tenancy and any commission Varosi have charged the landlord unless you exercise your break clause within the tenancy and correct notices are given.
Rental Payments:
The first months rental payment needs to be paid in advance prior to the beginning of the tenancy with further payments to be paid on the due date paid by bank transfer unless otherwise agreed. The full rent must be paid by a single standing order and we are unable to accept multiple standing orders.
If the rental payment is late over 14 days then a 3% charge above the bank of England base rate may be chargeable
Insurance:
It is your responsibility to insure your own belongings throughout the tenancy in case of damage of theft.
Damages & Breaking contract clauses
During the tenancy and upon moving out of the property you are responsible for baring the cost of any malicious and accidental damage caused to the property, but you are not responsible for general fair wear and tear. The cost of the damages may be taken from your deposit at the end of the tenancy or may need to be paid during your tenancy if problems accrue within your term.
