House hunting :- the do’s and don’ts
The Don’ts
Don’t be late for your appointment! Most landlords or agents are (or should be) busy people and have lots of other groups to see. If you are late, you may not be able to view the house at all!
Don’t worry too much about a little untidiness in the houses, look past this and check out things like carpets, walls, nice kitchen, clean modern bathroom etc. Large rooms look great at first but remember small is beautiful, much cheaper to heat (with energy prices escalating every year this is important) and easier to keep clean & tidy.
Don’t fiddle with or handle things in other peoples rooms - you could be accused of damage or theft!
Don’t waste time on trivial matters like who cleans what or gardening tips, what you should be looking for is a clean, warm, modern and above all SAFE home.
Don’t forget to ask the right questions-see our questions page!
Don’t expect perfection for £60 odd pounds a week! You can waste valuable time and effort finding a perfect home when good houses are being taken by your mates, further reducing your choice!
and…………….above all……….DON’T GIVE UP!The place you want is out there, guaranteed, it may take a bit of finding though!!
Questions you should ask:-
Any good landlord or agent should be able to answer the following important questions:-
How long is the Lease, is it 12 months, and what dates does it start and end?
Do we pay rent monthly or termly, and how much is the deposit please?
Is there a current gas certificate? Can you see it please?
Is there any rent free period in the summer?
Does the house have broadband?
Is the house accredited, can you see the certificate please?
Are any bills (i.e. water rates) included?
