Contracts

Tenancy Agreement is in current regulation introduced by the National Associations of estate agents. This tenancy agreement is produced to keep both the Tenants and Landlord protected ensuring that all legal requirements / processes are met.

Deposits

A security deposit is a set amount of money paid at the start of renting a place. The Deposit Protection Service (DPS) are one of the government- authorised tenancy deposit protection schemes that John Barclay uses to register all of our residential properties. This provides a safeguard for the Tenants as well as the Landlord.

Inventory

At the beginning of the tenancy agreement and during the check in a full inventory will be completed with an Inventory Clerk. The clerk will complete a ‘walk through’ of the property making notes and with essential photos of items/property.

The completed the report is kept with John Barclay and a copy produced for tenants’ records.

In the event of a dispute the inventory data is used for settling matters. Furthermore, the inventory record is vital for all check-out ensuring the tenant/s liable/non-liability for any damages as noted during the initial check-in.

Check in/ Check Out

Check in: upon signing the tenancy agreement keys are handed to the tenant and are taken to the property for a check in. This consists of a quick overview of the basic essentials of the property.

Check out: once a time has been agreed one of our agents will attend the property to do a simple and quick check out. We will go through the inventory that was signed at the start of the tenancy agreement to ensure that the tenants are not liable for any damages that were previously noted. Pictures of the utility meters are taken and a quick walk around to ensure that no valuables have been left in the property.
