Moving out information makes it easy to rent a property with PWR Property Consultants

We want to make renting a property through PWR as easy as possible and we hope you enjoy living at your rented property. The information provided below relates to when you decide you want to move out as such we want to make this straight forward for you too.
 

Moving Out

We require you to submit one month's notice in writing if you want to end your Tenancy. Upon receipt of your notice we will contact you in order to arrange a mutually convenient time to conduct a formal checkout at the property and to collect your keys. In the event that you are not available to hand back your keys you will be required to send them to our office by courier/registered post.
 
We will take all meter readings and deregister your name(s) from utility companies and council tax. You will be required to confirm your forwarding address in order that we can forward your deposit to you. In most cases, the deposit is returned within 7 days. Should your new Landlord request a reference from us regarding your Tenancy we will provide this in writing at a cost of £25.00 + VAT.

Early termination:

Should you decide to leave the property whilst under the fixed term of your Tenancy we will re-advertise with a view to finding a new Tenant. If we are successful in securing a Tenant to take over your Tenancy you will be charged £250.00 + VAT from your deposit as an Early Termination Fee.
