Standard of homes when you move in
When a property becomes vacant and a new tenant is going to move in we will:
-
Carry out a gas safety check where gas is installed and provide a certificate
-
Carry out a safety check of the electrical installation
-
Undertake a water hygiene test and provide a certificate
-
Remove any rubbish from the property and garden
-
Clean the property
-
Re-decorate parts, or all of the property if required
-
Carry out all of the urgent repairs and try to complete all other repairs whilst the property is empty
-
Keep the incoming tenant informed of the date the property will be ready
Sometimes we may:
-
Leave minor repairs to be completed once the new tenant has moved in. If this is the case, the incoming tenant will be informed of the timescale for their completion.
-
Leave work to the garden if this means the property can be let to a new tenant faster. The gardening work will be completed once the property is let.
