    Common questions and answers
    image cannot be displayed
    • Looking for a property in Yeovil or the surrounding area? Have a question about an aspect of letting a property?  You'll find answers to our most common questions below.  You can also get in touch with us if you don't find the answer you need.
    • How is rent paid?   One month's rent is usually payable in advance on the start date of the tenancy and monthly thereafter by standing order. (Different arrangements can sometimes apply: e.g. payment of 6 months rent in advance).
    • How long is a tenancy usually?   A tenancy is initially for a minimum of a 6 months fixed agreement under an Assured Shorthold Tenancy.  After the initial fixed period you will be invited to sign for a further fixed period of 6 or 12 months, depending on the wishes of your Landlord, or the tenancy may become a statuary periodic tenancy, again depending on both party's wishes.
    • How much deposit is required?   A deposit is payable by the tenant, usually equivalent to one month's rent. 
    • How often will I have management checks?  If your property is managed by Martin & Co we will visit you 6 weeks after your move-in date and then every 6 months.
