Let a Property
Let a Property – The Process:
- A potential tenant will register as an applicant with Jameson and Partners. Here they will give all necessary personal, contact and property criteria which will be added into our database matching system.
- Once a desired rental property is found, the applicant will book a viewing at a time mutually convenient to both the applicant and the landlord and/or current resident of the property. No offers will be accepted on a property without a viewing having first taken place.
- If the applicant decides after the viewing that they wish to apply to take the property, an application fee must be paid and the applicant will be put through referencing.
- If the referencing comes back with no problems and the Landlord is in agreement that the applicant meets all their tenant criteria, the applicant will be asked for a holding deposit pay equivalent to one week’s rent. This reserves the property before they sign the Tenancy Agreement.
- The successful applicant will then be set a date for the Tenancy Agreement to be signed and the move-in process to occur, after any final checks and the pre move-in inventory have taken place.
What our tenants say – a recent 5***** Google Review
We’re renting a property through Jameson and Partners, and from start to finish it has been a fantastic experience. Although difficulties arose due to a previous tenant not moving out on the agreed date which delayed our move in, Katrina helped us in every way she could, was extremely commutative and very responsive to any queries we had.
Although the move in was delayed, Katrina worked very hard to get the property ready for us to move in as soon as possible, as well as resolving any issues that may have occurred due to the short notice of our move.
Since our move in, Katrina was sure to check up to make sure if we needed anything more.
Overall a fantastic service from Jameson and Partners, especially Katrina who we were dealing with directly. I would highly recommend them.
