1: Make sure to retain a copy of your tenancy agreement.
2: Check that any deposits paid to your landlord are registered with a government-approved Tenancy Deposit Protection (TDP) scheme.
3: Your landlord should inform you about council tax, water rates, and electricity supply (including any prepay meters).
4: You, along with your landlord or letting agent, must inform the Sandown Court Management Company when you move in. Office Location: Room 244, Ground Floor, Block 2
5: You will need to pay deposits to the Sandown Court Management Company for:
- Keys
- Fobs
- In-house heating and hot water
The following procedure must be followed before any new tenant moves into Sandown Court.
All new tenants must register at the management office in Block 2 so we can complete our administrative procedures. Tenants should be accompanied by the landlord or managing agent, who should also inform them of “Everyday Information for Residents” on the website.
During registration, tenants will need to pay the following prior to receiving electronic entry fobs and moving in:
• £50 deposit for each main entrance/exit green fob
• £200 deposit for heating and hot water
They will also be asked to provide their contact details, as well as brief details of everyone who will be living in the apartment.
The above procedures are to ensure the financial security of all our leaseholders, building safety and compliance with fire safety regulations.
Before ending your tenancy and vacating Sandown Court, please ensure that you notify the management company of your proposed leaving date.
Please let us have at least 7 days’ notice of your departure. This will enable us to:
- calculate your final accounts for heating and hot water, parking, etc.
- repay any deposits due back to you when you return your fobs and keys to the office.
Please notify us via email at: sandowncourt244@gmail.com
When emailing, please include:
- Your name and apartment number
- Your telephone number
- Your proposed leaving date
All fobs and keys must be returned to the management office, and your accounts (for heating and hot water, and parking if applicable) must be settled before you leave, so that any deposits due back to you can be repaid.
On no account should tenants transfer keys, fobs or deposits to any other tenant.
