Finding a property which in effect will become your new home, can be exciting not to mention time consuming. So, we have taken the time to give you a step-by-step guide to renting.
Step 1: Ensure you have the right amount of finance prepared.
Since 2020, the Tenant Fees Act 2019, came into full force meaning many of the fees once paid by the tenant, are now not payable. Beware there are some upfront costs involved before renting a property. These costs normally include:
Holding Deposit (equal to 1 week’s rent)
Tenancy Security Deposit (equal to 5 week’s rent where the rent is less than £50,000 p/a and equal to 6 weeks rent where the rent is above this) – unless you are renting deposit free
First month’s rent
when searching you should be in budget. If you have a monthly rental price in mind, make sure you check added costs including bills and tax. You can check how much you can afford on the Money Advice Service website.
Always ensure when you start looking, you have your identification documentation, immigration status and proof of address (less than 3 months old) easily to hand.
