Tenant FAQ.

Viewings, references, deposits, repairs - everything we get asked before someone signs. If your question isn't here, message us about a specific listing and we'll add it.

5 questions
  • One month's rent, held in SafeDeposits Scotland - an approved Scottish deposit scheme. You'll get a deposit certificate within 30 days of the start of your tenancy.

  • Pet policy is set per flat - check the listing's 'Pets considered' line. We're generally open to a well-behaved dog or cat in a flat that suits, but some buildings have factor restrictions we can't override.

  • Sometimes - it depends on whether the previous tenant has left and the flat has been turned around. Ask us when you enquire and we'll be straight with you.

  • It varies by flat. Each listing has a 'Bills included' line that spells out exactly what's covered. Where nothing's included, you set up your own accounts with the suppliers of your choice.

  • We aim to reply to every tenant enquiry within one working day. If you've sent us a message and not heard back in 48 hours, please nudge us - sometimes things slip through.
