professionals and details the occupation contract between you, as Landlord, and your new contract-holder. Our focus is on providing long-term occupation by the contract-holder.

One month’s rent (in the form of a deposit) is held by us and is protected by the Tenancy Deposit Protection Scheme (TDS) or for let only properties we use the Deposit Protection Service (DPS).
DILIGENT INVENTORIES
Prior to occupation, an inventory clerk will prepare a comprehensive Inventory and Schedule of Condition of the property and contents for all properties to let. This is now a requirement as part of The Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016.
