Tenant Fees Explained

The price advertised in our property adverts is the rental cost of the property – this is displayed per calendar month (PCM). Or if you were looking at a student property then the cost will be per week, per tenant.

In addition to paying the rent, you may also be required to make the following payments, permitted under the Tenant Fees Act 2019. These fees are not included in the price shown.
