What information is required about the tenancy?

The Tenancy Agreement may not provide all of the information that we need and we may require you to provide additional information as requested on the form.

It would help us to speed up the process of dealing with the claim if you could ensure that the proof of rent includes the following information:

• The landlord or agent's name and business address
• The date that the tenancy agreement started
• The amount of rent you charge for the property
• What is included in the rent e.g. fuel, water, meals etc.
• How often the rent is due e.g. weekly, monthly, 4 weekly
• If the property is managed we will also require the full name and address of the owner of the property.
