Guide for Tenants

US Military Personnel

Our service is totally free of charge to prospective tenants who are active duty US Military, GS personnel, DOD members. If you have just arrived and do not have transportation available to you, we will be more than happy to collect you direct from inside any of the three local RAF bases and personally escort you to viewings.  This also provides a great opportunity for our staff members to explain the local area whilst driving to and from viewings.

Please note that some of the information in this guide may not be applicable to US Military members, please contact us for further clarification on any of these points noted.

Viewings

Viewings will be arranged at convenient times and you will be accompanied by a member of staff, who can give advice and answer any questions you may have.

Reserving the property

Once you have decided on a property, you will need to reserve it by paying a 'holding deposit'. Assuming that the tenancy goes ahead, this will be deducted from the monies due before you move in. If the landlord declines to grant the tenancy, it will be refunded. However the deposit will be forfeit if you decide not to proceed for any reason, or if you fail to provide complete and accurate information in your application.

References

As a minimum we will require satisfactory references from your employer (or college), and a previous or current landlord. We may also require a personal reference, and sometimes a guarantor. In addition a credit check will be undertaken. We may use the services of an independent referencing company to obtain and evaluate these references.

Rents

Rents are normally quoted calendar monthly, and payable monthly in advance. The tenant is usually also responsible for Council Tax (unless here on Orders), Water Rates, Gas, Electricity and Telephone costs. All rents are payable by standing order.

Deposit

A security deposit of no more than the equivalent of 5 weeks rent must be paid and where we manage the home this will be registered and held under the Deposit Protection Scheme. This is held to cover damage, breakages, and any other liabilities under the terms of your tenancy agreement. Please note that under no circumstances can the deposit be used by the tenant to cover rent.

Sub-Letting

If you are a tenant yourself, you will require your landlord's consent.

Council Tax

We will assist with all exemption forms for Military, GS, DOD members.
