Good to know
Questions wehear most
Send an enquiry from any listing and we will reply with available times, usually within one working day. Evening and weekend viewings can be arranged where the landlord agrees.
In England, agents can only charge permitted payments: rent, a refundable tenancy deposit capped at five weeks’ rent (six weeks if the annual rent is £50,000 or more), a holding deposit capped at one week’s rent, and a small number of default charges. We explain every cost before you commit.
No. Since 1 May 2026, landlords and agents in England cannot invite or accept offers above the advertised rent. The rent shown on a listing is the rent you pay.
Most new residential tenancies in England are now rolling (periodic) tenancies with no fixed end date, and you can leave by giving the notice the law allows. Company and executive lets can be agreed as leases with a term by arrangement.
You can ask. Under the Renters’ Rights Act, landlords in England must not unreasonably refuse a pet request and must respond within 28 days. We will help you put the request together.
