Once a potential tenant has been found, pass on all the tenant's information to an independent referencing company who will carry out extensive credit checks, identity checks, and employment referencing.
Draw up an ARLA Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement.
Prepare an inventory and schedule of conditions and check the tenant in and out at the end of the Tenancy. If the Landlord requests an independent Inventory Clerk to carry out the inventory and the check in then there will be a separate charge.
Before the tenant moves in, collect a months' rent in advance, and a Security Deposit equivalent to five week's rent. The Security Deposit will be registered with the TDS (Tenancy Deposit Scheme) and held in a Client's Account for the duration of the Tenancy. A Registration Certificate will be given to the tenants with the Prescribed Information.

- Energy Performance Certificate ranging from E75.00 upwards for a one bed flat. We use ecoEPCs and the website address is www.ecoepcs.co.uk
- All properties require an EICR before they are let. This is an Electrical Installation Condition Report which has to be carried out by a qualified electrician. Our electrician, Blue Bird Electrical Services Ltd, charges for an initial report £200.00 plus VAT. If there are any other works required to bring the property's electrics to an acceptable standard, then an estimate will be given. The report has to be carried out every five years.
Inventory Fees
We use a few inventory clerks so it would be difficult to list their fees as the prices change depending on the size of the property and if the property is let furnished or unfurnished. We are happy to obtain prices from the inventory clerks.
NB. The above list of charges are the figures charged to us by our contractors which are passed directly onto our Landlords. We do not add on extra fees for us. These prices will change as and when our contractors increase their tariff. All Landlords will be notified immediately of all changes when it happens.
