Standard Fees for Tenants

Moving boxes

Administration fees

Campbell+Dean do not charge agency fees or an administration fee to enter into a tenancy agreement. Tenancy renewal fees are not charged to tenants. Such fees are now illegal under Scottish law.

When a tenant apples for a property they will be asked to pay a Holding Deposit of £125. The holding deposit will form part of the security deposit for the property. In order that our landlord can consider an  application for tenancy we will need to know details of your circumstances and will email a list of questions that we require answered. If your offer is accepted we will then email you a link to our online referencing application process; which will also include a credit check on each applicant.

To support your application proof of address and either your passport, national ID card or UK driving licence will need to be brought to our office for verification.

Tenant Administration Fees During the Tenancy

Rent arrears letters will be issued if rent remains outstanding beyond 5 days after it was due. The charge for each letter sent is £10.00 inc. VAT. Interest will be charged until payment is made.

A fee of £35 inc VAT for each and every visit to the property when serving a hand delivered rent reminder letter or conducting a additional property inspection.

If the Tenant fails to keep an appointment made with a contractor which has been notified to the tenant and as a result the contractor submits an invoice for their abortive costs, this invoice must be paid by the Tenant. In addition an admin fee of £15 inc. VAT is payable to Campbell+Dean.

If the Tenant informs the Landlord of a problem with the property, a contractor is appointed to fix the problem and no problem is found, the Tenant will be liable for the contractors invoice. In addition an admin fee of £15 inc. VAT is payable to Campbell+Dean.

Under the terms of the tenancy agreement the tenant will be liable for any of loss or expense incurred by the landlord caused by any failure by the tenant to fulfil any of the conditions of their tenancy agreement.

A fee of £75.00 inc VAT will be charged if the Tenant require assistance in gaining entrance to the property before 09.00 AM or after 17.00 PM on weekdays or at any time on weekends or bank holidays.

It is the Tenants responsibility to change the final standing order value with their bank, if you forget to do this then there is a small administration fee of £6.00 inc VAT for us to process the return of the overpayment.

We do not accept cash, credit card or cheque payments.

If any charges remain outstanding at the end of the tenancy, Campbell+Dean will deduct the amount due from the security deposit.

Testimonial Jeff Bridges

December 1, 2015
Renting my property has been straight forward and hassle free. Being based overseas communication was a concern. I was kept informed at every stage from a Skype introduction to the pre-let safety checks, references and tenant move in. Thank you for your guidance and prompt attention at all times.

Testimonial Sandra Kearns

I have always found and managed my own tenants. I was really pleased with the speed and the quotes for redecorating and carpeting my house which were forwarded to me. My property was quickly re-presented and re-let. My new tenants are professionals, properly referenced and are paying a higher rent that than my last tenants. I am very pleased. Thank you all.

I came home late afternoon to find my kitchen floor soaked. My agent talked me through turning the water off. They said a plumber would be straight out. An hour and a half later, at 6pm on a Friday evening, the leak was fixed. Thank you for rescuing my Friday evening Campbell and Deans.
