The Next Step - Finding a property
Once you have found a property that you are interested in, contact us to schedule a viewing.
You can contact us on 01522 556099 or email us click here to email our lettings department.
Following your viewing keep us updated with your thoughts!
If you wish to rent the property we will speak to the Landlord on your behalf to get everything agreed in principle before you are required to complete application forms and pay your application fee.
If this property is not for you, let us know why so we can understand your requirements better.
The Next Step - Application and referencing
Once a tenancy has been agreed in principle, references will be required for all tenants and will take 10/14 days to be confirmed.
An application form and fees should be returned to Mundys ASAP to allow the property to be marked as LET (‘subject to referencing’), providing exclusivity to you.
Application Fees are payable as follows:
Per Applicant - £92 including VAT; one off fee to cover administration and referencing. This fee is non refundable if you withdraw, or your application is unsuccessful.
However, If a property is withdrawn prior to the tenancy being confirmed, the application fee will be returned. Identification is also required.

The Next Step – Moving in to your new home
Once acceptable references have been received we can confirm a date to move into the property. Your first month’s rent, and deposit, must be paid in cleared funds (cash or bankers draft). Personal or company cheques can be accepted if sufficient clearance time of 7 working days is allowed.
You must have contents insurance in place to cover your belongings in the property. Our Lettings team will be happy to advise you upon specialist tenant insurance products available.
On the day that you move into the property, an appointment will be made for you to visit the office to read and sign the tenancy agreements and to pay your first month’s rent and deposit. We will also schedule to meet you at the property to go through the inventory with you.
If you have any questions or queries please do not hesitate in contacting us where a team member will be happy to assist.

Additional Information
Tenancy Agreement
A tenancy agreement is a legal document signed by the Landlord (or agent) and Tenant that identifies the rights and responsibilities of each party in line with the occupation of a property. Mundys Residential Lettings will prepare the tenancy agreements for the letting of each property, tailoring it to match the requirements of the Landlord and Tenant. Most commonly an Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement is used, with a minimum term of six months.
Deposit
The deposit is paid by the Tenant to the Landlord or their agent prior to taking occupation of the property. The Housing Act 2004, introduced Tenancy Deposit Protection for all Tenants and deposits paid from 6th April 2007. Mundys Residential Lettings currently utilise the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS) in line with this legislation. Click the link below for more information. Link to deposit documents / website
