When
a prospective Tenant has been found, we will:
-
- apply
for references
- prepare
the Tenancy Agreement ready for signature
by the prospective Tenant and Landlord. (When
required we can sign on the landlord's behalf
but we will require your prior written consent.)
- arrange
for the preparation of an Inventory and Schedule
of Condition. This will be an independent
inventory clerk.
On
receipt of satisfactory references we will:
-
- collect
from the prospective tenant such rent and
deposit as has been agreed between the parties.
- arrange
for the Tenancy Agreement to be signed in
the presence of an independent witness.
- arrange
for the Tenant to be checked into the property.
This will be carried out by an independent
Inventory Clerk or by a member of our staff.
- arrange
for service meters to be read and the appropriate
authorities informed of the readings and change
of occupier.
- arrange
for the Tenancy Agreement to be stamped by
the Inland Revenue if appropriate.
Once the Tenant has moved in we will: -
- supervise
rent collection
- prepare
a monthly rent statement and transfer net
monies to the Landlord
- during
the course of the tenancy arrange to visit
the property at periodic intervals to ensure
that the tenant is complying with their obligations.
- liaise
with both Landlord and Tenant to keep both
parties informed of any matters relating to
the tenancy.
- arrange
for repairs or ongoing maintenance using our
regular contractors or if you prefer contractors
of your choice. (In an emergency we reserve
the right to instruct our regular contractor
if yours is unobtainable.)
- serve
any notices on the tenant as necessary to
protect the landlord's security.
At
the end of the tenancy we will
- arrange
for the Tenant to be checked out of the property
and itemise discrepancies on the Inventory
and Schedule of Condition. (This will be carried
an independent Inventory Clerk or a member
of our staff).
- report
to you and take your instructions concerning
any irregularities or discrepancies on the
Inventory and Schedule of Condition.
- do
our best to replace any broken or missing
items claimed for and instruct contractors
to make good or repair any damage.
- arrange
for the final meter readings and for the utilities
to be transferred back into the Landlord's
name.
when we are satisfied that the Tenant has
met his obligations, return his deposit less
any deductions which have been made necessary
by the Tenant in order to terminate the tenancy
in a satisfactory manner.
- prepare
a final statement of account and take your
instructions concerning re-letting the property.
