Tenancy advice pack
Rotherham's Tenancy Advice Pack has been produced for prospective and existing private tenants, who are to rent or are renting from private landlords, and it offers a basic understanding of their responsibilities. The Tenancy Advice Pack supplements the Government's 'How to Rent' guide.
The Tenancy Advice Pack has been produced in association with Clifton Learning Partnership primarily for distribution in Eastwood and Ferham but the majority of the information contained in the leaflet is relevant to all private tenants renting in Rotherham.
The Tenancy Advice Pack covers:
- Before moving in: Check the landlord is licensed and ask for safety certificates and the tenancy agreement.
- Your duties: Pay rent, keep the home tidy, and set up utilities and Council Tax.
- Landlord’s duties: Handle major repairs and give notice before visits.
- Need help? Contact local support if you face eviction, disrepair, or financial issues.
