If you decide to instruct PMP INTERNATIONAL, you will need to sign a copy of our Terms of Business and select the type of service you require. You will also need to provide the KYC and AML documentation.

We will organise marketing material such as professional photos, a floorplan and we will need to obtain a copy of the EPC rating (Electrical Performance Certificate). We will advertise on the largest property portals in the UK including Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket to achieve maximum exposure.

Once a prospective tenant has put forward an offer, we will put the offer to you in writing and if agreeable start the referencing process. We will book a check in inventory and lodge the deposit with the Deposit Protection Scheme.

A check in inventory will be taken immediately prior to the tenant moving into the property. This is undertaken by an independent inventory clerk and will incorporate meter readings. A similar report will be taken when the tenant leaves the property and the two reports will be used in the event of a deposit dispute.

You will have the opportunity to comment on the report if you disagree with any part of it. The tenant will be provided with all relevant documentation pertaining to the tenancy, including an Electrical Performance Certificate, a Gas Certificate (if the property is connected to gas) and Prescribed Information relating to the deposit. Full move in funds will be paid by the tenant. At this point the tenant will move into the property.
