REFERENCING FEE

What is it?

The Referencing fee includes the cost of referencing – which will cover checking your credit status, previous employer, current or past landlords, and taking into account any other information to help assess the affordability of your tenancy application. The fee also includes providing a Tenancy Agreement and protecting your security deposit with a scheme such as The Deposit Protection Scheme. It covers the cost of one person.

Guarantor fee

Depending on the outcome from your application from the referencing company, your earnings or overall financial position may require you to provide a Guarantor. This is not uncommon, and means you have someone on your behalf that undergoes credit referencing – to ensure they have sufficient earnings to cover the overall rent commitments in the event that you, as the tenant, are unable to pay your rent. This fee is payable in respect of each Guarantor to cover credit referencing costs and providing a Deed of Guarantee as part of the Tenancy Agreement, which details their obligations as a Guarantor.

Renewal fee (tenant's share)

This is the cost of preparing a new Tenancy Agreement or Licence Agreement gives the tenant or licence an assurance of staying in the property for a further fixed period, and avoids the uncertainty of a landlord serving notice at any given time.
