Landlord Information

British Open Golf, July 2021

The Process

If you wish to let your property for the Golf Open 2021, please email us or call us on 01843 861964.

We will arrange an appointment, view the property and discuss the requirements to enable you to rent out the property.

Once you are happy and we are satisfied that the requirements are met, we will advertise the property on various outlets, eg Zoopla, On the Market, social media channels and through our offices.

Appointments will then be made for prospective tenants to view, although some tenancies are arranged unseen.

Once a suitable tenant is found, we will ask them to provide a 25% deposit and a security deposit on the property (this may vary per property but minimum is £500). The deposit will be held in our TDS account and certification will be provided.

All paperwork will be drawn up and signed prior to the renting period. The standard letting period will be for ten days in July. The exact rental period will be agreed with each tenant.

Upon the tenant vacating the property, the property will be inspected by ourselves and, so long as the condition is as stated on the inventory, we will then return the security deposit to the tenant.

Our fees will be at the rate of 12% of the agreed rent plus Vat. We will provide all paperwork and assist with safety requirements; we can organise any safety requirement to be carried out at the cost of the certificate.

An inventory is included in the price.

Check in and out is carried out by the property owner, we can provide this service if the owner is not present, at a fee to be agreed.
