Unpaid Rent during the tenancy (payable to the Agent)

Other permitted payments

Any other permitted payments, not included above, for breaches of contract or under the relevant legislation including contractual damages. These may include:
Lost keys – The actual cost of replacing lost keys or other security device. If the loss results in locks needing to be changed, the actual costs of a locksmith, new lock and replacement keys will be charged to the tenant.
Variation of a contract at the Tenant’s request – To cover the costs of taking landlord’s instructions and execution of new contract capped at £50.00 inc VAT or reasonable costs if higher.
Adding or removing a Tenant at the Tenant’s request, with the Landlords approval – To cover the costs of taking landlord’s instructions, new tenant referencing and Right-to-Rent checks, deposit registration and execution of new tenancy agreement capped at £50 inc VAT (per replacement tenant or any reasonable costs incurred if higher).
Early termination costs – This does not give a right to terminate a tenancy earlier than the end of the fixed term and any request will be considered on a case by case basis. If the Tenant is granted permission to terminate the contract early, the tenant shall be liable to the landlord’s reasonable costs in re-letting the property including rent due under the tenancy until the start date of the replacement tenancy.
