We will use this information to create an assured shorthold tenancy agreement and this is normally for a fixed term of either ten, eleven or twelve months (dependent on the property concerned) unless agreed differently between you and us. Unless stated in the contract the rent will be payable termly.
Please note: If you are on an exclusive rent agreement unless otherwise stated in your Tenancy Agreement you are responsible for your own council tax, water rates, gas, electricity and telephone bills, TV licence and own personal effects/contents insurance. If you are on an inclusive rent agreement you will still be liable for certain payments and these will be clear from your tenancy agreement. Inclusive rents will not normally cover the TV license, your own personal effects/contents insurance nor the liability for council tax. It will be your responsibility to pay council tax if the property becomes liable, for example if student exemption forms are not provided to the council.
Your Landlord is responsible for the buildings insurance together with any Landlord’s contents insurance and where applicable any ground or chief rent. In the case of flats or apartments any maintenance, management and service charges will be the responsibility of the Landlord unless otherwise stated. Your lead tenant will be able to collect the keys at the start of your tenancy when the tenancy agreement is signed by all tenants, your guarantor agreements have been received and all monies have been cleared into our bank account.
The keys can be collected from the Tetris UK office during normal office hours and upon prior appointment. We are not able to send any keys by post or personally hand keys over at the weekend. All keys for the property will then be handed to the lead tenant and it will be that person’s responsibility to advise the other tenants that the keys have been collected and to arrange for distribution of the keys.
Where details have been given to us as a result of you taking a property marketed or associated to Tetris UK Sales and Lettings Ltd also known as Tetris UK Ltd or any of Group client "Landlords", Tetris UK Ltd will pass applicable information on to your Landlord or Landlord’s agent. Tetris UK Ltd and your Landlord reserve the right to pass this information on to any utility or other commercial service company, to any council authorities, credit referencing agencies in order to secure a credit reference and any government authorised tenancy deposit protection scheme. Your details may also be used to communicate latest company information, services and offers by Tetris UK Ltd to approved third party contractors.
