Property to rent
Propertiesdirect.co.uk lists properties for rent direct from the landlord, i.e. no lettings agents.
One of the advantages of renting direct from the landlord is that you avoid agency admin fees. Moving into a new place is expensive enough without having to pay more on top!
The down side is that you will have to make sure yourself that the landlord provides a tenancy agreement (which is there to protect both you and the landlord) and that an accurate inventory list is taken and agreed on by both of you (an inventory list is a list of the property contents provided by the landlord, e.g. furniture, and details of any existing damage). |
