Important Information:
Please be aware that the property may be currently occupied, and you should not directly approach anyone who may be living in the property. You need to make sure that you are tenancy ready and have considered how you will pay your rent (which is payable in advance), your moving costs & how you will furnish and floor any property you are offered.
Rent is payable from the start of a tenancy and payable in advance e.g. January's rent is due on or before 1st January. Rent must be paid on the day of signing for the tenancy. You will then be required to set-up a monthly rent payment, i.e. Direct Debit. If you are in receipt of Housing Benefit or Universal Credit and cannot pay the full amount straight away, we can consider setting up an arrangement, but this must be discussed in advance.
Council Tax, gas, electric bills are all the tenant’s responsibility and must be set up immediately with any meter readings provided to the supplier. If this property includes a heating charge it is not eligible for Housing Benefit/Universal Credit.
The property is let unfurnished and without flooring. You may be able to apply for advice/assistance with applications to the Scottish Welfare Fund if you do not have access to funds for furniture, floorcoverings, etc.
The new tenant will be responsible for maintaining any garden and decorating the property throughout.
