Looking for your perfect property: Priorities

Looking for rental property in London can be difficult, yet the task can helped by having a clear idea of your priorities. You can then see what you can or cannot afford on your budget. It's all a question of balance.

It is essential to know:

  • What your maximum budget really is. Rents are normally quoted weekly
  • What areas are your priority, and what other areas would you consider if they offered better value for money
  • What are your transport needs
What we require

We at Sherlock Homes provide quality accommodation for quality tenants. This means that we do have certain requirements that our tenants must satisfy before a tenancy can be created.

We need the following:
  • A current employers reference
  • A reference from your previous landlord or agent
  • We will arrange a confidential bank reference on your behalf
  • We will expect you to be ready to sign an agreement for a minimum of six months
  • Please note: a months rent in advance and a months rent as deposit is our minimum requirement.
If your company requires a company let, certain conditions apply. Please contact us for further details.

Making an offer

Once you have found your ideal property through us, it is now the time to make an offer. Please remember that the asking price is a guide, and can go up or down, according to the market conditions of the day. Its important to remember that all prices quoted on this site do not include bills unless stated.

If your offer is accepted, you will be required to put down a holding deposit. This will ensure that your property is reserved for you, and will not be shown to any other prospective tenants. Once we have wrapped up all these dealings, it will be time for you to sit back and start planning your move.
