The prospective Tenant will need to make the necessary arrangements to produce the required documents, and deposits in accordance with the timetable set out below.
VERY IMPORTANT: When the agreed takeover date does not allow sufficient time to be certain that payments to CP using a standard cheque will have time to clear the banking system, payment can only be made in the form of cash, a bankers draft or a building society cheque drawn on its own branch.
Required Immediately
- Details of Tenants: Names and addresses of the proposed tenants, plus the names of other occupants (if any).
- A completed application form is required for each tenant and guarantor
- A Holding Deposit
- Proof of Identity: Proof of photographic identity for each of the proposed tenants is required, such as a passport, plus a copy of a recent utility supplier’s invoice addresed to the prospective tenant, or a credit card statement that is no more than 3 months old.
