Moving In – Frequently Asked Questions

What happens after my Tenancy is approved?

As soon as a Tenancy is approved a Tenancy Agreement must be signed within 3 working days. An appointment will be arranged by our Head Office.

When signing the Tenancy Agreement, payment of the following items are required, payment accepted by Cheque, Cash, or Credit Card.

How quick can I move in?

A period of two weeks is generally required between signing the Tenancy Agreement and collecting the keys. This period allows for references to be taken.

Key collection is subject to the apartment availability.

What are my responsibilities as a tenant?

These are detailed in the tenancy agreement. In summary, you are expected to take reasonable care of the property and its contents. This includes keeping the property clean and performing minor jobs such as replacing light bulbs and batteries. All maintenance issues must be reported to our team on 0121 622 2191 or email info@ahfieldproperties.com.

Are my belongings insured by A.H. Field Properties?

A.H. Field Properties insures the building and the common parts of the building against fire, theft, or accidental damage. This insurance does NOT cover the contents of your property and we recommend that you insure any personal possessions which are in the property.

Are the properties furnished or unfurnished?

Apartments are available furnished or unfurnished, however the cooker, carpets, and curtains must be as supplied by A H Field Properties. This does not apply to student accommodation.

If at any time tenants decide they want items of furniture removed from the apartment they should contact Head Office, who will arrange for this to be done. No furniture or fitments are to be removed without permission first being obtained from A H Field Properties. This does not apply to student accommodation.

What is the inventory?

An inventory is a list of the condition and contents of the property on the moving-in date. This is prepared by us and will be discussed with you during the moving-in process. The inventory will be counter-signed by both you and us and a copy provided to you.

Please note that whilst a degree of ‘wear and tear’ through normal usage is expected, any damage to the property or our contents will be your liability. For the avoidance of doubt, this includes dirt or dust that was not in a property prior to commencement of the tenancy.

Can I have a pet in the property?

Sorry, no pets allowed.

Is there cable or satellite TV in the properties?

We suggest that you call your chosen provider to discuss availability.

Can I smoke in the property?

We would prefer you not to smoke in our properties as this may affect the internal decoration and is likely to lead to a deduction from your deposit on vacation of the property.
