Tenant Referencing Criteria:
Pattinson will undertake referencing checks on all applicants over the age of 18 wishing to move into a rental property. As part of this process, we will undertake:
- A credit check to ensure each applicant does not have any adverse credit such as CCJs (County Court Judgements).
- An affordability assessment to ensure applicant's income will sufficiently cover the rental payments.
- To pass the affordability check, each applicant's gross annual basic income (including benefits and pensions) must be at least 30 times the monthly rental amount (36 times for Ellinson properties). Eg If the rent is 500 pcm, applicants would need to earn 15,000 as an annual pension or basic salary (excluding commission/bonus) before tax or other deductions were made.
- Each applicant's affordability is assessed individually against the criteria. However, couples who have previously co-habited, are married or are in a civil partnership will have their incomes combined and assessed jointly.
- Self- will require an accountant's reference and should have accounts for a minimum of two years.
- Employment checks to confirm your start date, salary and if your position is permanent.
- Homeownership checks (only if you are a homeowner) confirming your mortgage payments are up to date.
- A Landlord reference (if you are currently residing in rented accommodation) confirming you have abided by the terms of the lease. This will check that the rent was paid on time and in full, there was no antisocial behaviour and the property was looked after in an appropriate manner.
- Right to rent' id checks.
If you do not meet the requirement, you will require A homeowner guarantor.

Length of Tenancy: 6 months72:Te2c,Holding Fees are calculated on a sliding scale:
Rent of £100 - £199pcm = £20 Holding Fee
Rent of £200 - £299pcm = £45 Holding Fee
Rent of £300 - £399pcm = £65 Holding Fee
Rent of £400 - £499pcm = £90 Holding Fee
Rent of £500 - £599pcm = £115 Holding Fee
Rent of £600 - £699pcm = £135 Holding Fee
Rent of £700 - £799pcm = £160 Holding Fee
Rent of £800 - £899pcm = £180 Holding Fee
Rent of £900 - £999pcm = £200 Holding Fee
Rent of over £1000pcm = £230 Holding Fee
The holding fee is non refundable in the eventuality that you withdraw from the process, fail the right to rent checks, provide false or misleading information, or fail to provide requested information within 15 days of the holding deposit being paid. The holding fee will go towards the move-in monies (rent) on successful applications. We will provide you with our referencing criteria when you apply for a property or upon request. Before moving into the property you would need to pay the first month's rent and tenancy deposit (normally a month's rent + £25). Eg If the rent was £500pcm then the deposit would be £525.
Alternatively, instead of paying a deposit you can purchase a 'Reposit'; a deposit replacement product that allows tenants to pay a non-refundable fee equal to one week's worth of rent (inc VAT). There is a £30 annual renewal charge if you stay in the property beyond the first 12 months. You remain liable for the full cost of any breach of your tenancy agreement, but benefit from not paying the lump sum deposit upfront. You must pass referencing to be eligible for this product. T&C apply.
A higher rent may be required where the landlord agrees to the tenant having a pet. Not all landlords will consider pets so this should be confirmed with us prior to viewing. As a general rule blocks of flats will not allow pets under the terms of the lease. All negotiations and payments are subject to contract. Please note that we require identification and proof of address from anyone over the age of 18 who will be occupying the property. This should be a passport with a utility bill dated within the last 3 months (a full list of acceptable id is listed on the government website under 'Right To Rent').
Rental properties are dealt with on a first come, first served basis so be quick to avoid disappointment! We have client money protection (RICS) and are members of The Property Ombudsman Scheme.
Potential Costs During The Tenancy:
- Unpaid Rent - Interest at 3% above the Bank of England Base Rate from Rent Due Date until paid in order to pursue non-payment of rent. Levied when the rent is more than 14 days in arrears.
- Lost Key(s) or other Security Device(s) - Tenants are liable for the actual cost of replacing any lost key(s) or other security device(s).
- Variation of Contract (Tenants Request) - £50 (inc. VAT) per agreed variation.
- Early Termination (Tenants Request) - Should the tenant wish to leave their contract early (and where the landlord agrees to this early vacation), the tenant shall be liable for the landlords costs in re-letting the property as well as all rent due under the tenancy until the start date of the replacement tenancy. These costs will be no more than the maximum amount of rent outstanding on the tenancy.
- Company Lets - Our fee (payable on move in) is half of one months rent + VAT (60% of one months rent) subject to a minimum of £300 + VAT (£360) to cover the costs associated with processing the application, referencing and arranging the tenancy agreement.
