1. What is the minimum tenancy term?
Our tenancies are all advertised based on a 12 month tenancy term. After that you will be offered the option to renew.
Unfortunately, we do not offer break clauses.
If a tenancy term shorter than 12 months is required then this is considered a short stay and a higher rent will apply.
All tenancies are Assured Shorthold Tenancy contracts

Some of our studios and 1 bed apartments are only suitable for single occupation only and some are suitable for single occupants or couples. This will be stated in the property advertisement listing. Please note that we cannot accommadate couples in studios or 1 beds, which are for single occupation only.
We do not accept people under the age of 18 in our studios or one bedroom apartments.

Regardless of whether a television is provided or not, the tenant is responsible for arranging their own television license if they require one.
5. Furniture? Can I bring my own? Can you take something away?
All our properties are fully furnished. You are welcome to supplement what we provide with your own furniture. Please note, we are unable to remove furniture items, provide the flat unfurnished or partially furnished.
6. How soon can I move in?
If you see a vacant property then we need you to move in no later than 14 days from the time you see it. This is because we cannot leave the property vacant for a long period when there are many tenants looking to move in within a much shorter time horizon.
If the property you are interested in is occupied, you will need to move in within 2 days of the time the property becomes vacant.

At Fab Lets we have our own in house maintenance team to deal with requests quickly and efficiently.
