Referencing and contracts

As references are being processed, Modi's will create an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) for you and send this to you. Please ensure you read and understand the AST contract as you will be required to sign this after the reference check has been completed. Signing of the Tenancy Agreement will be completed electronically (no need to print), so you will need access to a valid email address.

Please note, once a move in date has been established by the tenant this cannot be postponed to another date without Landlord/Agent approval. Failure to not move in on the designated date will result in the Tenancy being refused and the property will be put back on the market - therefore you stand a chance of losing your holding deposit.

Once the contract has been signed, the remaining rent and deposit will be required to be paid no later than 48 hours prior to move in day by BACS only. The Tenancy cannot commence until ALL payments stated above have been received in our Client Bank Account and the AST is signed. This is non-negotiable.

Inventories:

The landlord may opt to have an inventory check completed before the Tenancy Agreement commences. This allows you, as the tenant, to receive your deposit back in full with proof that the property is not damaged. General wear and tear is not deducted from your deposit, however, you will be required to vacate the property, leaving it in the same condition it was in prior to you moving in.
