About this property

Arranging a Viewing:
To arrange a property viewing, we highly recommend that all interested applicants visit the official Miller Metcalfe website. Once there, kindly navigate to the "Renting" section conveniently located at the top of the page. Within the dropdown menu, you will find the option labeled "Request A Viewing."

We kindly request that any individual aged 18 years or older, intending to move into the property, complete the provided form. It is essential that each person fills out a separate form. Upon submission, this information will be promptly forwarded to our team. Subsequently, we will carefully review your details and promptly get in touch with you to schedule the earliest possible viewing date and time that aligns with your preferences.

For prospective tenants:
It is highly recommended that you book an internal viewing of the property. To speed up the referencing process with Miller Metcalfe, you can opt-in to Open Banking. This means that instead of providing proof of income documents, you can connect securely and quickly with Open Banking to allow the provider to view a snapshot of your income and rent payments. You will need to provide proof of identity to prove that you have the right to live in England, such as a British passport, national identity card, or a letter of attestation and driver’s license with a birth certificate. If you are a non-British citizen, you may be able to provide a share code to prove your immigration status.

To demonstrate that you can cover the rent, the landlord requires proof of income or employment. If you have been employed for less than 6 months, you will need to provide a guarantor or pay the full term of the tenancy rent in advance. Proof of income or employment can be in the form of pay stubs, employment contracts, or bank statements showing regular income deposits. If you are unable to provide proof of income for the required timeframe, you will need to arrange for a guarantor who can vouch for your financial capability or pay the full term of the tenancy rent in advance. We want to ensure that you are aware of these requirements to avoid any delays in processing your application. You will need to earn 2.5 times your annual rent to pass a reference.

If you are self-employed or a company director, you will need to provide proof of a submitted tax return from the most recent tax year. This can be in the form of a copy of your tax return or professional details for your accountant who can verify your income. Additionally, if you have savings that you plan to use to cover the rent, you will need to provide your most recent bank statement from the past 30 days as evidence of your savings. We kindly request that you provide these documents along with your rental application to ensure smooth processing of your application.
If you cannot meet the income requirements, you may need to provide a guarantor who will agree to pay the rent or any damages if you cannot. The guarantor will need to have a salary of 3 times the rent and should be living in the UK. Miller Metcalfe can provide a guarantor if you do not have access to one. A previous landlord's reference will also be required to comment on your previous tenancy. You will need to give permission for a credit check to be conducted to get a 'soft check' of your credit history. This is to ensure that you have a fair opportunity to declare your full situation to Miller Metcalfe.

A refundable holding deposit is payable to reserve the property, which is the equivalent of one week's rent. Please note that this deposit will be withheld if you or any relevant person withdraws from the tenancy, fails a right-to-rent check, provides materially significant false or misleading information, or fails to sign the tenancy agreement within 15 calendar days.
A tenancy/security deposit is also required, which is capped at five weeks rent for rent not exceeding £50,000 per annum or six weeks rent if greater. This covers damages or defaults on the part of the tenant during the tenancy and applies to assured shorthold tenancies. You may also need to pay at least a month's rent in advance. It is important to note that the property comes unfurnished, and bills are not included. There will be no access to the loft area throughout the tenancy.

If you have any questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us. We appreciate your cooperation in providing the necessary documentation.
