Apply for a Property |
You can reserve
any property by paying holding deposit, the sum of £250. You
will receive a receipt and our terms and conditions. This payment
does not form any contract although is does indicate your intent to
take up a tenancy and subject to the Landlord’s initial acceptance
we will then start the referencing procedure for each applicants. On
receipt of satisfactory references and Landlord’s approval we will
arrange a time for you to sign contracts and to pay final monies. |

This will depend
on whether 1st Choice is managing the property for the
Landlord. If we are, you will be required to pay the rent direct to
us. Where we are not the managing agent we will provide you details
for the payment of the rent. |

the rent? |

would require 7 working days to process your application. We are
however able to arrange faster move in dates, subject to the
property being vacant and the Landlords approval. |
