Legal Fees
There is a charge of only ?40.00 for the Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement to be drawn up. For this we arrange three separate contracts, one for you the Landlord, one for the Tenants and one for us. Should you require us to serve the appropriate legal notice for possession (quit), the law quite clearly states that the tenants must be given TWO months' written notice, this allows the tenants to find suitable alternative accommodation — a small fee of ?45.00 will be incurred for this.

NO AGENCY FEES — NO SET UP COSTS — NO HIDDEN CHARGES

FURNISHINGS

Unfurnished The properties classified as unfurnished should contain little or no contents, there should however, be carpets, net urtainslwhere applicable), standard curtains throughout and all fittings i.e. kitchen cupboards etc. This particular method of renting is the ’norm' as there are likely to be less to repair/maintain throughout tenure.

Furnished ln a property termed as furnished you the landlord must provide everything deemed as ecessary to live comfortably, from having beds in all bedrooms, to ensuring there is a washing machine, full sets of crockery/cutlery, indeed every item you would find in your own home, exceptions being (ornaments etc.), The main disadvantage to letting as furnished is that every item has to be maintained in working order, and some up to legislation standard — by YOU the landlord.
