Tenants Guide to Services and Fees
It is important that you read this guide carefully so as not to delay securing your chosen property. We aim to be as transparent as possible when disclosing our services, procedures and fees. Whilst every care is taken, changes such as seasonal promotions do occur so contact your local branch directly for an accurate assessment of your rental needs. Aaron Holmes is a member of a redress scheme provided by the property ombudsman (www.tpos.co.uk) Copies of the TPO code of practice plus our complaint handling procedure is available from any of our branches.
