Like buying your first car, renting a property can be a stressful activity, particularly if you don’t go into it armed with the right information. With so many questions and factors to take into account, such as the size of rooms, number of bedrooms, quality of fixtures and who you’re going to live with, we know it can be a minefield even for the most experienced of contract-holders.
Most people don’t move home very often, so the thought of doing it can be a daunting and novel experience – but it needn’t be. We've prepared a step-by-step guide to renting in order to answer as many questions as possible and help you be as prepared as possible for the exciting process ahead of you.
Though your landlord has a lot of responsibilities during your tenancy, contract-holders also have an obligation to look after and carry out the little jobs around the property. Just as if you were the homeowner, minor maintenance like changing light bulbs and attempting to unblock drains or toilets are responsibilities of the contract-holder. It's called acting in a 'Contract-holder-like Manner' and is part of the legal responsibilities of being a contract-holder.
It’s worth giving our guide a quick once-over before reporting any maintenance issues as the answer to the issue(s) you’re experiencing may well be there.
We work hard to help you find your perfect home by tailoring our search to your requirements. We find it helps to learn about our customers' lifestyles and personal preferences.
