Version v1

Landlords are you:

• Fed up with applications from unsuitable tenants?
• Paying back refundable ‘holding deposits’ and/or incurring Agent fees where applications have ‘fallen-through?
• Concerned about ‘deadline for agreement dates’ and an empty period and lost rent whilst looking for another suitable tenant?
• Worrying about whether the tenant will go on to pay the rent?

Y0u can rest assured with your 'Good Tenant Money Back Guarantee'

Will your Tenant be a ‘good’ tenant?

Due to our extensive experience, our application and professional referencing service has been proven to reduce the possibility of a ‘bad’ tenant through our robust Tenant Application Progression Service (TAP).

The Letting People are so confident of your TAP that they are also prepared to offer your unique and innovative:

‘The Good Tenant Money Back Guarantee’

This Guarantee on the TAP means you will not pay a penny if your Tenant *fails referencing.

AND…… in the event that your Tenancy does end with the Tenant(s) in unpaid rent arrears, which are in excess of the tenancy deposit, we will refund the cost of your Tenant Applicant Progression Fee!

Therefore you have nothing to lose!

Contact us on 01926 882555 or email: leamington@thelettingpeople.co.uk to find out more.

*A tenant ‘fail’ is as determined by our reference service provider. Please note that if the referencing company recommends that a guarantor is required, you are required to progress and make payment of your guarantor fee to take advantage of ‘The Good Tenant Money Back Guarantee’.

Could you be missing out on a good tenant, by not allowing a cat at your rental property?

Perhaps you are a cat owner yourself, or alternatively a landlord who won’t consider allowing any ‘pet’ in their rented property. It often comes down to a either a positive past experience, or one of those scary ‘urban tales’ from the landlord’s family and friends…

Obviously, every cat – from pure pedigrees to moggies – has its own personality or behaviours that are probably worth looking into, and considering carefully, if you’re going to allow your tenants to rent with their favourite feline friend.

Here are some things to consider about lettings and cats:

Older and wiser …

Older cats are used to living with their owners and are often calmer – especially with a cat-flap in the door that allows them to come and go at will. They may also be a bonus in an area that may be prone to rodents – even the Prime Minister has an adopted cat from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, Larry the Chief Mouser, at 10 Downing Street!

Cute kittens …

Kittens can be great fun (for the tenant) until they come home one day to find that the property has been turned into a playground and the kitten is halfway through destroying the landlord’s vertical blinds – or even the sofa! It’s probably best to only agree to a kitten in a fairly robust and unfurnished property, where the tenant provides their own blinds, curtains, and soft furnishings.

It’s also worth asking the tenants to put a detailed request in writing. For example: details of the cat’s size and age, and if this is likely to be a temporary or permanent arrangement.

Responsible pet owners expect extra costs to allow for additional wear and tear, and it may be reasonable to ask for some additional rent – say about £20–25 per month.

This will mean that you will be able to build up a small ‘repairs’ fund in order to quickly cover any additional work at the end of the tenancy (such as scratches to the doors).

If you agree to the tenants keeping a cat at the property, consider adding a pet clause to your tenancy agreement (signed by both parties).

Not all cats always have to mean a “no” …

Many tenants will have well-behaved cats due to good training and ownership skills. However, it is always advisable to put in writing what you both agree to be acceptable and to make it clear that you understand that a pet is an important part of your tenant’s life. In *2016 it was estimated that 11 million (40%) of UK households have pets, with 17% having a cat, so it can be a common request from tenants.

If you’d like to know more about lets with pets, please just ask.

This is a question we are asked by many landlords in so many different ways!

What with landlords facing increased costs through removal of tax allowances, changes in calculating your tax due on your property investments and the additional stamp duty, now is a good time to think strategically about your rental property and the demand in your local rental market. Many landlords say to us "even a small rental increase would be welcome"

This property in Marton had been let through The Letting People for some years and was in need of some updating work to attract professional tenants for a further 7-10 years.

Following a new kitchen, flooring, installation of gas fire and other refurbishment works this property was ready to go. The rental value increased by £250 per calendar month giving a return on the investment in just under 2 years.

On launching back on to the rental market, the property attracted immediate attention from professional tenants looking for an updated village property that was ready to move into – and was let in 1 day.

A win win for both the Landlord and Tenant!
