RIGHT TO RENT CHECKS

From the 1st of February 2016 the 'Right to Rent' government scheme came into effect. This requires all Agents to check the documents of prospective tenants when applying for a rental property. When coming to view a property with Martin & Co we ask that you bring with you the appropriate document(s) in case you wish to proceed with an application.

The simplest way to conform to the regulation is to view the UK Governments Right to Rent Guide, which can be found on their website. If you are struggling accessing this, please ask a member of staff for more information.
