Once your Rent Now tenancy has been set up you can renew your tenancy at any point for free:
- Go to 'Tenancies'
- Click 'View Tenancy' next to the tenancy that you'd like to renew
- Then select 'Click to see Renewal Options' and confirm that you want to issue a new contract
- Make any necessary changes to the contract
- Click 'Propose Renewal Terms' to issue the new contract
- After all tenants, guarantors and co-landlords have signed the contract you'll be invited to sign as the lead landlord
- We'll re-issue the How to Rent guide and the Prescribed Information about the tenancy deposit.
What Details Can I Change?
As part of our Renewals Service you can:
- Change Rental amount (this can also be done whilst remaining periodic)
- Update Notice address
- Adjust Break Clause
- Amend Tenancy Length
- Edit Custom Clauses
- Change the day on which rent is due (This does not effect the start-date of the renewed tenancy)
- Add and remove tenants and guarantors
You can't currently:
- Change landlords
- Add or remove landlord co-signatories
- Increase deposit amount
- Change the property address
- Change the day of the renewal date as it must be in the future and the same day of the month as the original contract
- Make any changes if your property is in Scotland
If you would like to change any of the above you'll need to create a new tenancy. For further information on doing so you can head here.
