Tenant Fees

The following provides clarification of the fees that may be applicable during a tenancy with MGY. Please ensure you read through and fully understand these before you make any decision about renting a property.

Acceptance of any offer is subject to contract, referencing/credit checks, Immigration and `Right to Rent` checks. You will need to pay the Rent in advance and Deposit that is due under a Tenancy Deposit at the start of the tenancy.

Referencing and Right to Rent Checks

You will be asked to complete an application and provide an original photographic Identification (e.g. passport, National ID card, VISA, resident permit, driving licence) along with Proof of Residence (e.g. original utility bill, council tax bill or bank statement all of which must be less than 3 months old).

Please note that that the need for a guarantor may not become apparent until your referencing (including references for any joint tenants) has been started. Where a guarantor is required they will need to complete an application form and provide photographic identification and proof of residence.

Referencing will cover a check against the credit file and public records of the individual, an Anti-Money Laundering check, confirmation of employment and salary details, confirmation of previous tenancy details and right to rent checks. These results will be reported to your prospective landlord to see if your application is acceptable.

Tenant deposit

A deposit equivalent to a month’s rent plus £100 will be required to be paid at the start of the tenancy. This is subject to referencing.

The Renting Homes (Fees etc.) (Wales) Act 2019 permits certain fees/ charges to be made where a tenant has defaulted on or breached their obligations under their Tenancy Agreement
