Terms of Tenancy

TENANCY:
The property is offered on an Assured Shorthold Letting Agreement for a period of 12 months. All applicants must be 18 or over. The tenancy agreement is a legal document.

VIEWING:
The property may be viewed by contacting Howards Estate Agents, 164-166 London Road North Lowestoft NR32 1HB. Tel: 01502 569416.

REFERENCE:
Tenants are required to provide three references from a bank or building society, employer and, if possible, a previous landlord. Howards will arrange a credit search. We will require photo ID (passport/driving licence) and Proof of Residency (i.e. utility bill/council tax bill).

HOLDING DEPOSIT:
In order to secure a property and remove it from the market while we undergo the referencing checks, a Holding Deposit equivalent of one weeks rent will be payable to Howards (Estate Agents) Ltd before references can be taken up on behalf of applicants. This Holding Deposit will be a refundable deposit, unless you have provided inaccurate information or purposely withheld information on your application.

Please note that the Holding Deposit will be a refundable deposit, unless;
• You have provided inaccurate information on your offer form / application form
• Purposely withheld information on your offer form / application form
• Decide to withdraw your application for the property through no fault of Howards / the Landlord

OCCUPATION:
Applications for tenancies are subject to the approval of the owners of the property. Applications will be forwarded by Howards, for approval, together with references received. N.B. If payment is made by cheque, time must be allowed for clearance before occupation can commence.

RENT:
One month’s rent in advance. Tenant to pay for electricity, gas (if appropriate), property council tax, water and sewage rate, telephone (if appropriate).

DEPOSIT:
In addition to paying the rent, the tenants are required to place a sum of £686.54 deposit (5 weeks rent) with Howards to be held by the TDS throughout the duration of the tenancy.

DEPOSIT FREE:
As an alternative to paying a Deposit (as above), some properties offer a deposit free option. This is not applied to all of our available properties and you should see whether a deposit free option is noted in the description or ask Howards directly to enquire. If a deposit free option is available, you will be required to pay a membership charge (equivalent to one weeks rent of £120 (both subject to VAT), whichever is greater) to Flatfair. This is not an insurance policy, and is a membership; any damages / cleaning deductions to be made would be charged to the account details you provide to Flatfair, at the end of the tenancy.

PETS:
In most cases pets will not be permitted by the landlord. Tenants with pets should enquire first to ascertain if the landlord will permit the pet to be kept at the property. In all cases where permission is given the tenant will be required to pay an additional £20.00 on top of the stated rental amount.

N.B. If payment is made by cheque, time must be allowed for clearance before occupation can commence.
