-
How do I keep up to date with new rental properties to the market?
To stay informed about the latest rental properties available through Petty Real, you can register for property alerts on our website. This way, you'll receive notifications about new rental properties that match your preferences as soon as they become available. Alternatively, you can call us on 01282 417775 to be added to our mailing list. -
What if I do not have a previous landlord reference, can I still rent a property?
If you don't have a previous landlord reference, you can still rent a property with Petty Real but you may require a guarantor. A guarantor is someone (usually a family member) who agrees to cover the rent if you're unable to pay. They'll need to undergo reference checks and demonstrate they can meet the financial requirement. Call our lettings team on 01282 417775 to discuss your options. -
How do I book a viewing for a rental property?
With Petty Real, viewing your potential future rental property is easy. To request a viewing for a rental property, simply fill out our rental registration form via our website. Once completed, a member of our team will contact you to schedule a viewing. Please note, you will need to submit a separate form for each property you'd like to view. Call us on 01282 417775 if you have any further questions. -
Can I still rent a property if I have pets?
Yes, you can still rent a property even if you have pets. We encourage you to apply for the property and arrange a viewing, as it's worth exploring your options. Recent legislation states that landlords cannot automatically discriminate against tenants with pets. However, some landlords may prefer not to have pets in their property. It's always best to discuss your situation with us. -
