What fees do I have to pay?
Under the Tenant Fees Act, most letting fees are banned. You typically only pay your rent, a refundable holding deposit (capped at 1 week's rent), and a security deposit (capped at 5 weeks' rent).
How do I prove my income?
Letting agents usually require your last 3 months of bank statements, payslips, or a letter from your employer to verify your affordability.
Can I rent with a pet?
This depends entirely on the landlord. Always use our 'Pets Allowed' advanced filter when searching for properties.
