Tenant Check UK, part of Tenant Check
Worldwide, was established to protect those
involved in the rental of a property both in
the UK and worldwide. Many property owners have been
unfortunate to have dealt with bad or
problematic tenants which cause owners
stress, hassle, loss of revenue and other
additional financial costs. These delinquent
tenants then move onto another property and
repeat the process over and over again.
The strategy is to avoid a bad tenant from the
start and our system allows our members to
share their experiences with you. Unlike
some databases that simply list bad tenants
our system creates individual tenant
profiles - an exact overview of their
previous |
 |
|
performance. This not only assists the
landlord or letting agent in avoiding bad
tenants but |
enables good tenants to have online profiles
of themselves built up giving them the edge
needed when applying for a tenancy.
However when renting a property it is not
just about avoiding bad tenants. It is vital
that as a landlord or agent you know your
legal rights and obligations. Therefore
Tenant Check UK are pleased to offer the
following articles covering topics such as
the landlord and tenant law in the UK and
information on the tenancy deposit schemes
available.
