| Comment | Private residential tenancies are well understood and pretty fair to tenants (compared to what went before). If that's what they've got, it's all clearly explained in the easy read notes.
You can check the landlord is registered on https://www.landlordregistrationscotland.gov.uk
If any of the deposit or rent is paid in cash, a receipt must be given.
The tenant should be given a copy of the EICR + PAT results, details of where their deposit is lodged, a current EPC and the inventory (they have seven days to bring up any problems). Make sure the meters are read on moving in day and the readings given to the energy company to get a clean start to the account. |
