Our Guide for Tenants
If this is the first time you have rented a property or if you are
a seasoned tenant, as experienced letting agents, we understand your needs and are here to help make your move as simple and hassle free as possible.
Register your interest
The first step to finding the right property for you is to register your details and requirements with us online www.hoggandhogg.wales, by calling 02920 10 25 25, or by emailing us at lettings@hoggandhogg.wales.
Arrange a viewing
Once we have all your requirements you will receive a selection of properties that match your criteria. We will call you to go through them and arrange viewings on any that are of interest.
Let us show you around
We’ll do viewings at times to suit you. After work viewings or at weekends, we will try to accommodate as best we can. We know how busy life can get. To secure a property we recommend an early viewing. We will accompany you throughout and be on hand to answer any questions immediately and give advice where we can.
Referencing and Tenancy Agreement
Once you have identified a suitable
property, you must complete a tenancy application where you may state any special conditions of the offer. If your offer is accepted you must pay an administration
fee to start the referencing process. This is the cost of considering the application, taking up references and preparing documentation relating to the tenancy.
The administration fee is non-refundable if the references prove unsatisfactory or the tenant withdraws the application before completion. Once all necessary paperwork and references have come back completed we will arrange the signing of the tenancy agreement by all parties.
Pay the deposit
Once the deposit is paid in full, the property is secured. This deposit is held as the landlord’s cover for any excessive damages that need to be repaired at the end of the tenancy. If Hogg & Hogg is managing the property on behalf of the landlord, the deposit will be registered with the DPS. However, if the landlord manages the property themselves, we’ll inform you what deposit scheme the landlord will be using and the terms and conditions of that scheme will form part of your Tenancy Agreement.
Move in to your new home
Upon completion you will be given a set
of keys and if your property is managed by
us we will provide you with a move in pack containing all relevant information and the Inventory and Schedule of Condition. The inventory is a detailed list of the contents and condition of the property at the point that you move into it. By both parties agreeing that the inventory is correct at the start of the tenancy, any risk of disputes at the end of the tenancy will be minimised. We recommend therefore that you thoroughly check the inventory before you sign.
