The Renting Process with Charles Morley
1. Finding the Right Property
Your journey starts with choosing the perfect rental home. Browse our comprehensive property listings and register your details to book a viewing with our team.
2. Securing Your Rental
Once you find your ideal home, we will guide you through the next steps:
- Negotiating terms with the landlord
- Paying a deposit (usually six weeks’ rent) and the first month’s rent
- Completing necessary reference and credit checks
3. What You’ll Need for Reference Checks:
- Valid Identification (passport or driving licence)
- Proof of Current Address
- Employment Details or Accountant’s
- Information (if self-employed)
- Bank Details
- Current Landlord’s
- Contact Details (if applicable)
Once all checks are completed, a tenancy agreement will be issued, and we will proceed to the final steps before you move in.
4. Moving In
Before your tenancy starts, an inventory check will be conducted by an independent inventory clerk. This includes:
- Reviewing the property condition together
- Recording utility meter readings
- Handing over the keys – and you’re ready to move in!
Tenant Responsibilities
As a tenant, you are responsible for:
- Paying utility bills (gas, electricity, water, and TV licence)
- Paying council tax for the property
- Keeping the property and outdoor areas well-maintained
- Making rental payments on time as per the agreement
- If your landlord opts for a property management service, we will provide you with the contact details of your property manager. Otherwise, you will communicate directly with your landlord.
- At the end of your tenancy, we will conduct a checkout inspection, collect the keys, and arrange for your deposit return.
