General Information
We consider ALL tenant applications.
We will try and indicate whether you will be successfull for a chosen property / accommodation over the phone or by e' mail. This saves time and disappointment.
All tenants will be referenced through Homelet, and in most cases Homelets decision is final.
ABBA make a charge for referencing and the associated administration cost's.
Contact us to discuss this further but don't worry we are one of the cheapest.
Who Can Apply
Professionals, students, families, couples, sharers and singles are all welcome to apply.
However it is ABBAs policy that tenancies will only be granted to persons aged 18 and over.
We no longer accept DSS applicants.
We will accept pets within reason but again only with the Landlords permission. The Application Process
Once suitable accommodation is found and you wish to proceed :-
You must complete our referencing application form and permit us to run credit checks and obtain previous landlord and employment references as applicable.
In some cases, for example student lets, a guarantor will be required.
You will then be asked for a holding deposit on the accommodation you have chosen (this is later taken off the security deposit payable) and you will also need to pay the fee for undertaking the referencing and the associated administration cost as stated above.
The reservation fee secures the property in your name for a move in date that has been mutually agreed and the property is no longer marketed until the referencing reports are received.
Should a tenant be declined and there is no way forward then the reservation fee is returned to the tenant but the referencing fees are retained by ABBA as liquidated expenses.
Completion
We will ask for the following:-
Prior to move in day the balance of the deposit will be required and the first months rent which is always paid in advance. Both deposit and rent need to be paid to ABBA in cleared funds before the move in occurs. Sometimes we will accept cash on the day of move but if paying by cheque you need to allow ten working days.
If you are happy with our terms contact us and we will be delighted to show you properties which match your requirements. If there is nothing on our site that suits you register anyway, as new properties are becoming available daily, and as soon as a match is found we will contact you.
If you wish to apply e'mail, telephone or fill out the registration form with your requirements.
Finally
As a tenant of ABBA you will received a top quality and fair service from the day of your first viewing to the day you move out. We will ask you to sign an inventory and an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement and providing the conditions have been met within these agreements you WILL be returned your full deposit. Be assured all our properties have periodic gas and safety checks undertaken, we will answer our queries and resolve any issues that could arise.
