Mention the name Asquith Homes to anyone from Wakefield and they will instantly recognise the name, it is a testament to the quality of the properties and services we provide. Below we have included some information on what you should know before you rent a house, as at Asquith we know that renting a house for the first time is important, we want to ensure that you know the important facts before renting.
The first thing you should do before renting a house is check if the area is right for you, you should be aware of how you are going to commute to work, public transport nearby, attractions or whatever you find important in the search for your house to rent. You should then start to look at your budget, it is important to know that there may be extra costs when you are first renting, especially if you are renting through an agency, this is due to admin fees and deposits that increase the initial deposit.
When renting you should also think about all the bills you are going to pay for, these can range from gas, electricity, water, council tax and TV licence (including more bills if you pay them) – this can vary with your landlord though. When also deciding upon renting you should decide whether you want it furnished or unfurnished and whether any of these goods are included in the cost.
Lastly, it is important that you read the contract as carefully as possible the contract should reflect any agreements that are made, if not you should seek legal advice.
