Applying for a tenancy:
- In order to secure a property to rent an application form needs to be completed for each adult or couple who will reside at the premises.
- The Right to Rent Act came into force on 1st February 2016 and all applicants and occupants over the age of 18 have to have a Right to Rent check. Applicants/occupants will have to produce original forms of identification in the presents of a David Moore employee. If a passport is provided then a second form of identification is not required.
Any Passport anomalies will be reported to The Home Office. All non EU applicants must provide valid work permits. These details are required for credit search.
There are no fees applicable for the arrangement of this tenancy apart from one week's rent as a holding deposit. This is refundable upon moving in unless reference checks fail or the agreement is not signed within 15 days.
Once satisfactory references have been received, we will contact you and arrange the soonest convenient date for you to move in.
Permitted Charges
During the tenancy certain charges are permitted.
- Late payment of rent. This will attract an interest charge of 3% above base rate. This will not be charged until after the rent is late by at least 14 days, but the charge will include the 14 days.
- Payment of £12 (including VAT) per key for the reasonably incurred costs for replacement of lost keys.
- Early termination of tenancy. If you choose to vacate the property before the end of the Tenancy Agreement you will still be responsible under the terms of the Agreement until the property is re-let or the Agreement ends. We will make our best endeavours to find a replacement tenant and when the new tenant moves in we will release you from the obligations under your tenancy. This includes rent and utility charges. There will be a charge of £125 + VAT to cover the landlord's reasonable costs in finding a new tenant.
- Changes to tenancy agreement. If you wish to change the tenancy agreement, for example, by adding or removing a tenant, there will be a charge of £50 + VAT.
