Checks by your landlord or agent

Your landlord or agent will usually need to make routine checks to be sure you are a suitable tenant. The checks are to make sure:

• You have sufficient funds to pay the rent
• You have a good payment history
• If applicable you have been previously been a reasonable tenant

Credit referencing will be carried out through a third party and you will pay a charge to cover this and administration costs when you apply for a specific property.
