Tenancy guide for landlords - Part 9: Rent arrears

Tenancy guide for landlords - Part 9: Rent arrearsIn the rare event of a tenant failing to pay their rent on time, we quickly make contact with them to establish why. We have automated procedures in place for this, which include chases via text message, e-mail and post, and we also have our staff make telephone calls and conduct house visits where necessary. If the tenant has a guarantor, we’re also sure to make prompt contact with him/her and make them aware of the situation - requesting payment where necessary.

As we sign joint tenancy agreements, if there is more than one tenant living at the property, they’re all jointly and severally liable for the total amount of rent each month, so even if one tenant has paid their share, it’s only right that they’re informed of their housemate failing to do so because it becomes everybody’s responsibility.

If you missed the previous parts of our tenancy guide for landlords, you can catch up below.
