Frequently Asked Questions
We will ask for your address history for the last three years and complete a credit check on each individual tenant. We will also require a reference from your existing Landlord or Letting Agent (if you are currently renting) as well as a written reference from your employer. If you are self-employed, we will ask for an accountant’s reference and most recent set of submitted accounts.
The lease you sign will be an Assured Shorthold, which means that you can stay in the property for the period of the lease (provided you meet all the obligations of the lease). If the landlord wishes to end the tenancy you will be given two months’ notice to quit the premises.
We have an obligation to conduct regular inspections of all tenanted accommodation. This is to ensure the property is not in need of repair, that you are looking after the property and discuss any problems you may be experiencing. You will be given notification when an inspection is due to be conducted.
In the event of maintenance being required please telephone us at the earliest possible time in order to minimise any problem that could subsequently arise. Trades persons will be alerted by the Agent and dependent upon the nature and urgency of the task will respond accordingly. Simple precautionary procedures should then be taken by the tenant to prevent any additional problem arising e.g. turn off water at the stopcock if necessary, isolate electric or gas supplies at the mains where required.
You cannot have any pets unless we have permission from the landlord/ourselves in writing. You must consult us prior to obtaining a pet and submit a written request to have a pet stating age/type/breed.
YES! You should consider taking out contents insurance to cover accidental damage to the Landlord’s contents, buildings, fixtures and fittings. The landlord is responsible for insuring the building.
The Deposit normally equates to 5 weeks rent and will be held throughout the tenancy in a government approved deposit scheme and will be returned at the end of the tenancy subject to the property being left in a good condition without any claim for potential damages beyond fair wear and tear.
As a tenant you are responsible for ensuring the rent is paid in full and on time. We have facilities to enable you to establish a standing order which will mean payments are paid directly from your bank to our designated account. You will need to cancel the standing order before leaving the property.
Utility bills, including Council Tax is your responsibility unless stated otherwise in the tenancy agreement. You will need to choose your supplier upon moving in and ensure accounts are closed when you vacate.
Once the Landlord has agreed to accept your application (subject to references and contract) we will ask for a holding deposit equating to one week’s rent. Upon successfully passing the referencing stage of the application, the holding deposit paid will count towards the total balance of rent and deposit owed before the tenancy start date. You risk losing your deposit in the event you provide inaccurate or misleading information on your application, fail a right to rent check, do not all reasonable steps to enter into a tenancy agreement or unilaterally withdraw your application.

Thank you both for everything, you are the best out there!
We met Sam and Nicki after weeks of fruitless house search. From the moment they picked up the phone, they were very efficient and professional. They made the process very easy and were quick in responding to mails and enquiries. Sam and Nicki got us moved in within 10days and they were very understanding. We are very pleased with the service we received at GB Elite and cannot recommend them enough. Thank you both for everything, you are the best out there!

I would recommend their service as they have been spot on since day one
After 5 years renting though agencies that they only care about money I met Nicki.
We were living in one of her properties managed under a different state agent and things were not the best.... and then Nicki took over the management of the property.
From the moment we exchange the first couple of words by phone I was impress in the way Nicki conducted the conversation.
Money wasn't the main thread of the conversation, she was asking on things to make us feel better and more comfortable at home and improvements that the house might need.
Over the 4 years that I have been dealing with GB ELITE every single problem that we had related to the house has been actioned and repaired properly, no quick fixes to patch the problem.
I would recommend their service as they have been spot on since day one.

They are extremely efficient and professional but most importantly are always happy to help in any way they can.
Nicki and Sam have been beyond helpful to me and my family, we were really struggling to find the right property and starting to loose hope until we met Nicki and Sam. They made the process of moving in to our new home as smooth as possible and went above and beyond. They are extremely efficient and professional but most importantly are always happy to help in any way they can. I would highly recommend their services and we are very grateful for them.

★★★★★ Sara-jane Reilly
The service has been far greater than what a high street brand can offer and at a much fairer price. A++
As if moving abroad wasn’t daunting enough I decided to become a landlord at the same time, a friend introduced me to Nicki & Sam – they explained everything to me, no question was too stupid, they took all the stress out of it so I could focus on relocating. The service has been far greater than what a high street brand can offer and at a much fairer price. A++
★★★★★ Alexander Offord
From the minute I got in touch they have been extremely helpful, and friendly.
I met with Nikki and Sam after my last letting agent fees continued to spiral. From the minute I got in touch they have been extremely helpful, and friendly. I didn’t hesitate to use them for my next lease!!
They have kept me informed, done all the hard work and informed me of any issues as they arise. And most importantly to me were very clear and transparent with any fees which they have stuck to.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting to lease out their property.
Many thanks
