Renting

  • paragraph

    Whether you want to rent a house or flat, the rental process is the same. Rental properties usually become available about two months before the end of tenancy date, so where possible it is worthwhile to start looking early.

    Here is a short guide on how to secure a property, and help you understand tenancy agreements and inventories. At David Astburys, we are devoted to helping you find your ideal home and we have your best interests in mind.

  • paragraph

    Finding a Rental Property

    Firstly, you should think about the kind of property you would like to rent. You need to know what your priorities are, as it can be difficult to find everything you want in one property. An important decision to make early on is if you want a furnished or unfurnished property. However, most unfurnished flats now come with modern appliances such as a fridge and washing machine, so it is always a good idea to ask the landlord or agent exactly what's included.

    If you inform us with what type of rental property you are looking for, we will let you know of any properties that meet your requirements and help you find your ideal home.

  • paragraph

    Things to Consider
    • Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
    • Bath or Shower
    • Furnished/unfurnished
    • Storage space
    • Parking
    • Separate/open plan kitchen and dining room
    • Garden
    • Energy efficiency

  • paragraph

    Budget

    To work out what rent you could afford monthly, total your monthly expenses (not including the rental estimate) and subtract this amount from your monthly income. The final figure is a rough guide of what figure is affordable for rent each month. Use this figure as an estimate when you're searching, if you let a member of the David Astburys team know, we can suggest suitable properties that meet your requirements.

    Finding the right location will have an impact on your lifestyle and the property you choose. An experienced local agent will be able to provide useful information about house prices, local schools, transport links and other local amenities. This will help you choose an area with confidence.

    Once you've found a rental property you like, book a viewing as early as possible. There is high demand for properties in the rental market and if you find a property you love, it's best to move fast to secure it.

    A referencing check is just to make sure that you're a suitable tenant and are able to pay your rent. We will also check to make sure that you have rented a property without any major problems in the past and we will ask for an administration fee. Be aware that if you fail any of the necessary checks, you may not be considered for the property.

  • paragraph

    Referencing Criteria
    • Three years' address history
    • Employment details
    • Confirmation of earnings
    • If self-employed evidence of the last three years' account details
    • Current landlord details
    • Your bank account details

    Only once you've paid the deposit is the rental property truly secured.

    The deposit is usually the equivalent to five weeks rent and it is held for the duration of the tenancy. This deposit is held as cover for any damages that may occur and need to be repaired at the end of your tenancy.

  • paragraph

    We Make is Easy

    We will protect your deposit with a government-authorised Tenancy Deposit Protection scheme.

    We will organise for both you and the landlord to sign the tenancy agreement which sets out the terms of the tenancy. After which, you will be given the keys to your new rental property.

    Jack Sparrow - Senior Lettings Consultant
    Born and raised in Richmond, South West London, I studied Aerospace Engineering and began working for British Airways. I quickly realized that it wasn't my true calling and went off to become a qualified chef in some of London's best restaurants, where I spent long nights nurturing my passion for cooking and great food.I started my property journey 10 years ago in Richmond, working as a Lettings Negotiator. I quickly found my feet and realized that I had found the job that I love getting out of bed every morning to do. Over the last 10 years I have worked across different aspects of the London Lettings market including Corporate and International Relocation and prime Central London Lettings.I'm a positive person with a can-do attitude and believe that honesty and integrity are the core pillars of what we can deliver as property professionals. I take a huge amount of pride in helping people find their next home, which we all know can be one of the most stressful events that people will go through in their lives. I'm happy to say that I can make that hill easier to climb.One of my greatest achievements to date is spending two months in a town called Nanyuki, Kenya working on various charity projects, including teaching and building a school. It's a place I hold dear to my heart and I plan to return as soon as possible.

      'We recently sold our flat through David Astburys and the whole process went incredibly smoothly. I've dealt with lots of estate agents but the helpfulness, honesty and attention to detail that we got from the team was way in excess of anything I've experienced before.' Adam Mansell

      Dillen Vengradasalon - Sales Director
      Having worked in the property industry for over 11 years, starting out as a Trainee Negotiator, it's one of my proudest achievements to head up the Sales department as Director for the new David Astbury's branch, in Islington's vibrant Upper Street.I'm of Moroccan/Mauritian decent, but grew up in leafy St Albans. I've been fortunate enough to work in some of the most desirable locations and areas in North and North-West London over the years, such as Highgate and West Hampstead, so I'm extremely knowledgeable when it comes to certain postcodes, statistics and pricing. I'm especially passionate about working for a leading North London agent and serving local clientele with my expertise.When it comes to business, I prefer an honest 'all cards on the table' approach. I love to build a relationship and rapport with each of my vendors and particularly love the Sales process. This is due to my involvement from start to finish and seeing the rewards of servicing clients with exceptional customer service and an invaluable client journey. I thrive by working as part of a team and providing support to my local community. I'm someone who isn't afraid to get stuck in and will always go above and beyond to achieve the results my clients so need.

      I started in property as a 21-year-old in West Hampstead and prior to this, I travelled to Australia at 18 to compete at tennis which I've played all my life. This has naturally given me a competitive spirit which greatly helps me in the sales industry and as an estate agent.I'm outgoing, charismatic and love the job I do as a Senior Sales Consultant which makes it a lot easier to be successful in my role. I'm always eager to provide an immaculate service to both vendors and buyers.My biggest achievement to date is definitely getting on the property ladder. In my spare time, I love to unwind with friends on the weekend, play football with my mates and go to the gym.One quote that resonates with me is 'Many a false step was made by a man standing still' To me it means that indecision is just as costly as a wrong decision, so you can't stagnate, you need to be motivated to achieve your goals.My ambition going forward is to be an integral part of David Astburys and to succeed in my current role with future progression in mind.
