Belvoir Property Clinic - Looking for Rented Accommodation


Vicky Bowman, Lettings Manager at Belvoir Andover answers today’s property questions.
If you have a question for our monthly Belvoir Property Clinic, please send to info@belvoirandover.com

Q. My partner and I would like to rent our first home together but we are struggling to save the large deposit we need. Are there any options for paying a smaller deposit?

A. Yes, if you find a property through Belvoir you could qualify for Belvoir’s Nil Deposit Scheme. We know how tough it can be to raise that up-front deposit, so our Nil Deposit scheme offers an alternative option which will allow you to move quickly and easily into your chosen new home.
Rather than paying the usual six week’s rent as a deposit, you can now choose to pay a non-refundable fixed fee of just one week’s rent plus VAT.
At the end of the tenancy, the property will be inspected as usual and any claims for damage are invoiced to you for payment. It really is that simple!
There are some qualifying criteria, so pop into the office or give the Lettings Team a call on 01264 366611 to discuss.

Q. I have been looking for rented accommodation in Andover for some time now but even the smallest one bedroom flats are out of my reach. Have you any suggestions on how I can find something suitable?

A. It is difficult for those on limited budgets to find suitable homes to rent. Some of our smaller properties are let very quickly and you may not even get to see them advertised, so please do get in touch as we may be able to help you if we know what you are looking for.

Have you considered a house share? Belvoir always has a number of house or flat share opportunities and it can be the perfect solution for someone who can’t quite stretch to living on their own. Not only is the rent reduced but so are the bills.

Take a look at our website, www.belvoirandover.com to see what is currently available or drop into our office in Bridge Street so we can take your details and help you find the ideal home.
