Guide for Tenants
Finding a property in the New Forest and coastal areas
The first step is to contact us to provide brief details
about yourself and about the accommodation you require.
We then search our database for suitable properties for
you to view. If not urgent, we log your details so that
we can contact you as suitable properties become
available. It is wise to start looking about a month
before you wish to move, as the nicer properties are
viewed and reserved quickly. We regret that we cannot
assist DSS claimants. Our tenancies are granted for a
minimum term of 6 months.
Other Areas
If you are looking for a property to rent outside The
New Forest and coastal areas, please go to our
UK Network
page.
Viewings
Viewings will be arranged at times to suit you,
including evenings and weekends, and you will always 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 fee' of £250 . 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 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, Water Rates, Gas,
Electricity and Telephone costs. All rents are payable
by bank standing order to our company bank account.
Deposit
A security deposit of one month’s rental + £100 will be
required. This deposit will be treated in accordance
with the Tenancy Deposit Protection regulations and will
be held by the Deposit Protection Service. The deposit
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.
