Tenants

Please complete our tenant application form (one for each adult) and submit with two references for each adult.

Written references can come from your current landlord, past landlord, current employer, past employer, bank manager, accountant, solicitor, teacher, doctor, or any professional.

A typical reference will state how long they have known you and in what capacity. References cannot come from friends or family.

Once we have received your completed application and references we will forward same to the landlord. Demand for rental accommodation is at an all-time high and frequently there may be multiple applications for the same property. The ultimate decision in accepting an application lies with the landlord of the property.

Provided the landlord can be contacted we usually know within 2-3 days or sometimes sooner. Once we have received acceptance of your application from the landlord we will contact you immediately.

You will have to pay your security deposit and first instalment of rent. Please confirm with our staff what that payment will be for your particular property, as this can vary from property to property. Please note that this first payment will have to be paid in cash or via online bank transfer.

Yes, in all circumstances you will sign a tenancy agreement and you will receive a copy of same along with your rent book. The tenancy agreement will be for an initial fixed period which will be clearly stated on your agreement and will thereafter run periodically. A fixed term lease of 6 or 12 months gives you the security to occupy the property for that set period of time. During this time neither you nor the landlord can end the tenancy unless there have been breaches of the terms.

Once your application has been accepted and all monies have been paid we will draw up the tenancy agreement and associated documents. When all paperwork has been signed keys will be made available for collection.

On the day of check in, one of our personnel will read the relevant meters for you and provide you with the readings. It is then your responsibility to contact the utility providers to open an account. Please note that it is important that you contact the utility providers within 48 hrs of tenancy to avoid termination of supply.

Please note that the landlord's building and contents will be covered under his insurance but that only you can insure your own contents. On the day of check in we will provide you with contact details for insurance quotations. We strongly advise all tenants to arrange for contents insurance.

All future rents will be paid by standing order on an agreed date. Please note that Omarentals will assist you with the process of setting up your standing order on the day of check in.

These can vary but most likely will include gas or oil, telephone, t.v. licence and electricity. Please be aware that the tenant is responsible for all utility charges to include connection if so required.

The best way to work out the monthly rental payment for a property is to multiply the weekly rent by 52 weeks and divide by 12 months. This will give a per calendar month payment due on the same date each month.
