Rent with confidence

In Scotland, you find a property, arrange a viewing, and submit an application if interested. After referencing checks, you'll receive a Private Residential Tenancy (PRT) agreement. The PRT offers more flexibility and protection than traditional leases and can be terminated with proper notice. You will then arrange your deposit and pay your first rental payment. 

The described rental process and terms are standard in Scotland, but specific practices may vary with DJ Alexander. Please consult directly with our team for details specific to our services.*

You'll need to budget for monthly rent, a security deposit (typically one month's rent), and utility bills like gas, electricity, and water. Of course, budget for additional things like subscriptions and shopping. We do not charge additional fees for services like viewings or credit checks, so there are no hidden fees beyond your rent and deposit.

Report any issues through our online portal if your property is fully managed by DJ Alexander. Our team will handle the maintenance promptly. For let-only properties, you need to contact your landlord directly.

Whether pets are allowed depends on the landlord. Some properties are pet-friendly, while others may have restrictions or require an additional deposit. Always check the tenancy agreement and discuss with us if you have or plan to get a pet.

If you accidentally damage the property, inform us immediately. Depending on the severity of the damage, you may be required to repair it or cover the costs.
