The first step is to register your interest in your chosen property by clicking below.

Do you need an extra desk chair, or would you like the landlord to consider repainting the walls in the hall? Please note any requests in your Note of Interest.

We will compile all the Notes of Interest we receive and select one to pursue in accordance with the landlord's instructions. We will contact everyone who has expressed interest to confirm the decision.

The successful applicant(s) will be invited to proceed by paying a holding deposit of £200 (for properties with two bedrooms or fewer) or £500 (for properties with three bedrooms or more). This can be paid on our website clicking the button below.

Your full deposit will be between 150% and 200% of the monthly rent, depending on your circumstances. We will confirm this amount once referencing has been completed. The holding deposit will be credited towards your full deposit.

Once we have received the complete application form, we will review it and ask our referencing company to contact you for a full reference check. You will need to have an income in the UK equivalent to a minimum of 30 times your (equally split) share of the rent.

If you are studying or have a low income, you may require a guarantor. Whoever you choose will guarantee your responsibilities under the lease and will need to have an income in the UK equivalent to a minimum of 36 times your (equally split) share of the rent.

Once you have passed referencing, we will send you confirmation and contact you to arrange a convenient time for you to check into the property.

If your circumstances do not meet our usual referencing requirements, your landlord may allow you the option to pay two months' deposit instead of the standard one and a half months' rent.

Please ensure that we receive your payment in time for your lease start date. Payments should be made by bank transfer, and we need to have cleared funds in our account by the day before your lease starts at the latest, so please allow plenty of time. All the details you need are on your account form under your secure login.

While you're setting up your initial payment, consider arranging your standing order for the following months. Again, the necessary information is on the standing order form under your secure login, which includes a unique reference for you.

With all the paperwork signed and payment already made, you can head straight to the property when you’re ready to move in.

We will have arranged an appointment with our inventory clerks, Pinstripe, for you to collect the keys and review the inventory at the property. If you need to change this appointment, you can contact Pinstripe on 0131 564 1918.
