Thank you for your recent application for accommodation. This page sets out the principal terms of your Residential Licence Agreement.

 

You are about to accept a legal contract which binds the Landlord, the Tenant and where applicable, the Guarantor.  It is important that you understand what you are agreeing to. If you are unsure you should get advice from a lawyer.

The Tenant's right to occupy the Room will only start once:

 

* The Residential Licence Agreement has been accepted by (all of) the Tenant(s).

* The person nominated as Guarantor has agreed to their responsibilities and forwarded the appropriate documentation (if paying in instalments).

* The rent has been paid in full, or the first instalment of rent has been paid.

 

The Tenancy is subject to the conditions found below, and by accepting the Residential Licence Agreement you will be confirming that you agree to the Terms and Schedule set out in this letter. The Terms and the Schedule together form the Residential Licence Agreement.
