As with all rental properties in the UK we need you to pass reference and Right to Rent checks. If you answer 'no' to any of the following questions we will unfortunately not be able to progress your enquiry to live at The Gorge.

oDo you have a clear credit file (i.e. you've never receive a CCJ)?

oAre you solvent (i.e. you've never been declared bankrupt)?

oIs your credit score over 175? (If you're not sure then use one of the online free credit check websites)

oDo you have the Right to Rent in the UK?

oDo you earn 2.5 x the annual rent value? For example if your monthly rent is £700 you'll need to earn at least £21,000 per year before tax.

If you don't earn enough, then you may be able to rent using a Guarantor. Your Guarantor must-
