Letultimate.com - SPECIAL OFFER WITH GREAT FINANCIAL SAVINGS on your property

If you are a tenant looking for a new home and are in a position to pay 3 to 6 months in advance plus the deposit for your lettings then we are able to offer GREAT discounts on the advertised rate. You could save up to 10% monthly on the advertised rental rate, should you take advantage of this offer. Not only that you will save monies on any application fee. If you pay 6 months in advance then you will have NO APPLICATION fee, subject to terms and conditions.
Therefore, if the advertised rental rate is £750.00 per month then you could get this reduced by upto £75.00 per month which over the term of your initial tenancycould save you potentially £450.00 minimum. This combined with a saving on the application fee, currently £199.00 would mean a total saving of approx £649.00 on the cost of your letting. This saving is not to be missed and this would save you more money than you could expect to receive from a high street bank with current savings account. This offer is only available on selected properties and if you wish to go for this option then you need to make Letultimate.com aware prior to making any application.

Once you Application is Agreed
Once
your application has been agreed we will require a holding deposit which is the value of the required bond for the property.
This deposit will secure the property for a maximum of one calendar month. If
you wish to move into the property within one calendar month from the date of
application then you may be required to pay the full balance due for the
letting in advance. If you have any queries regarding payment information then
please contact a member of the lettings team to discuss.
In addition to the required deposit you will also be required to pay the first months rental due in advance. This can be paid prior to moving in, providing that the payment method used is classed as cleared funds.
Therefore, if Letultimate.com are able to agree your application you will then have to pay the deposit to secure the property. Please see the example below:
- Property Bond Amount: £550
- Property Rental Amount in Advance £550
If the bond on the property you are applying for is set at £550.00 then this is the value of the deposit you will have to pay to Letultimate.com if your application is agreed. Then you will also be required to pay the first months rent in advance. The first months rent in advance can be paid at anytime prior to your move in date and must be classed as cleared funds prior to any keys being released to you.
Any payments made to us must be
cleared funds. If you pay by cheque then clearing times must be allowed for
this. All future rental payments MUST BE PAID by standing order,
which you will need to set up with your nominated bank. We will provide you
with a standing order form so you can arrange this with your bank account
provider.
Paying your Rental Account with Letultimate.com
We
must re-iterate that it is a condition of your tenancy that all future rental
payments are paid by standing order only. When you move into your new property
you will be provided with the required standing order form. It is your
responsibility to set this standing order up with your bank account provider.
If you have on line access then this should be easy to arrange.
Standing
orders can take up to three working days to reach our account. Therefore when
setting up your standing order you must ensure that rental account payments
will reach us on your rental due date. Therefore if your rental due date is 5th
of each month then this is the date that your rental payment needs to credit
our account. It is advised that you set up your standing order for at least
three working days before your actual rental due date. This would ensure that
we receive your payment on the correct due date and will avoid your rental
account being displayed as in arrears as this could affect you obtaining a
landlords reference in the future, should you require one.
Difficulty Paying your Rental Payments
As
a leading agent we do appreciate that there may be an occasion when you rent
payment may be paid late through no fault of your own. This could be for many
reasons, your standing order could fail or you may have had problems obtaining
payment from your employer. Whatever the reason it is best that you let us know
if your rent account payment is going to be delayed as we need to inform the
landlord of this.
If
you are aware that your payment is going to be late then it is looked on more
favorably if you contact our agency and advise of this. If we are made aware of
the situation then we can work with you to get the matter resolved in agreement
with all parties concerned. If you do not contact our agency to advise on this
which leads to us having to try and contact you then you may incur late payment
charges on your rental account. If you do make contact with us then you can be
assured that you will not incur any charges on your account for late payment.
It
is your responsibility to make us aware if you are unable to pay your rental account
payment at any time.
