Below is Tenant and Landlord Information and Fees
Tenant Information
If you wish to make an application on one of our properties each adult will need to complete an online application form. To comply with Right to Rent legislation we require two forms of identification for each applicant, one confirming your current address and the other including a photo.
Prior to us completing any referencing we will look at your application to establish if your circumstances may enable us to approve your application. Please provide full and accurate details as false or misleading information may result in you losing your holding deposit.
Holding Deposits
A holding deposit totalling ONE WEEKS RENT will be taken by Anderson’s
A holding deposit is taken to reserve a property subject to references, contract and the landlord permitting the start of the tenancy at a date agreed by both landlord and tenant. The holding deposit will be credited as rent once the tenancy has started.
The holding deposit will not be returned if an applicant fails Right to Rent ID checks. Provides false or misleading information, unreasonably withdraws or fails to take reasonable steps to start the tenancy within the agreed timescale. Any previous adverse credit history including, CCJ, IVA, insolvency bankruptcy or low credit score must be declared. Any current or previous rent arrears, or disputes with any existing landlord must immediately declared to Anderson’s. Not declaring these could mean your application fails and the holding deposit is not be returned.
Where a landlord chooses to withdraw from a tenancy the holding deposit will be returned within 7 days.
References
We will apply for credit and current landlord references. We will also need to establish proof of income to meet the minimum criteria. In some circumstances we may require a UK based guarantor to be referenced and be part of the tenancy agreement.
Starting the tenancy
The security deposit and first month rent (less holding deposit) must be paid by bank transfer prior to the tenancy start date. All tenants/guarantor must sign the tenancy prior to tenancy commencement.
Security Deposit
Pay a deposit that is equal to five weeks of the rent. (See the property details for exact amount).
