Tenants

At Oakford Estates we understand that renting a property can be very stressful and time consuming, therefore it is our aim to make the process as easy as possible.

Just let us know what you are looking for and we will do the searching for you saving you valuable time.

We use the latest technology to match individual needs and search criteria and if this fails we always revert to old fashion searching on your behalf.

If you find the property that you are looking for with us, you reserve it by paying a deposit which takes it off the market, this will go towards your security deposit (which is usually six weeks rent).

Once the property has been taken off the market and the landlord has agreed terms we will start the referencing process, prepare the tenancy agreements and work with the landlord to ensure that the flat is ready in time for the proposed start date of tenancy agreements.

When a holding deposit is paid the prospective tenant will get a subject to contracts receipt which will stipulate all outstanding items from the tenants together with a deadline for completion.

Students or professionals with a low income will need guarantors or pay three/six month rent in advance depending on the circumstances.

All tenants will get one set of keys each and one copy of the tenancy agreement and inventory for all the tenants.

All deposits will be protected in accordance with government legislation.
