Thank you for visiting our website, if your query is still not answered then please email us at enquires@letsabode.co.uk or call at 01772 348302. We are open Monday to Friday 9 am-5 pm

A property that is advertised as coming soon is something that we are expecting but we might not have the full details available.  They are there to let applicants know that something will become available in the near future.  
Once we have a confirmed date, the property will be available to view and we will usually arrange an open house where a number of applicants will be invited to view it.


You can submit your interest through the website or our social media pages. We will assess the applications in line with the landlord/asset owner's requirements and arrange multi-viewings with the most suitable applicants.





If an applicant views and wants to proceed they would need to pay a holding fee of one week's rent, this would confirm that the applicant is serious and we would arrange credit checks once the ‘holding fee’ had been paid into the bank account.  We would not arrange the checks until this has been done and we will not hold any properties until this is paid.  This amount paid will later be deducted from the rent in advance payment.


To be considered for a property, please confirm the following:
1. You have the rent in advance and the deposit available
2. You will pass credit checks
3. You have suitable references
4. You have all your 'Right to Rent' documents as this is a legal requirement
5. You are in a position to move when the property will be ready to let
6. You do not over occupy the property as this could invalidate insurance


This information would be available in the advert of the property, there are some restrictions in mortgages & insurance that state the properties are to be let to professionals or students only.

If a landlord can accept such applicants then rent would usually be the local housing allowance rate, as a higher rent could cause hardship with a potential risk around affordability.

Most landlords would require a guarantor if the applicant is in receipt of benefits as they can not obtain landlord protection insurance if the tenant is not professional. A guarantor would need to be in full-time employment and be a homeowner.

If you miss an appointment that has been arranged you could be re-charged the cost incurred for this unsuccessful visit. It is important that you notify us with over 24 hours notice if you can not make an appointment so that the contractor can offer the appointment to someone else. Missing appointments could result in a landlord deciding not to renew the tenancy at the end of the fixed term.
An inspection would be carried out within the first three months of the tenancy commencing. They would then be booked in annually or more frequently depending on if there is any concern raised.
