Tenancy Agreements
Discussion
Hi. I'm about to rent my property out to some friends as we have bought a second. I am not charging them a bond as they are good friends and know that if they damaged anything they'd cough up with no fuss.
I want to create a tenancy agreement between us and wondered if anyone on here had one that I could see as an example and who could tell me the pit falls to look out for?
I will charge a month's rent up-front payable on the 1st of each month.
Thanks for any advice

I would strongly advise against letting to friends (if it's not too late!). I've done it twice (the second time against my wishes but persuaded by my wife) and both times we've ended up losing friends.
Sorry if this isn't the sort of post you're looking for!
P.S. We weren't the ones causing the problems - we're both very easy-going - but unfortunately sometimes people take the piss!

You've had a bad experience and I expected someone to post a warning. They plan to buy in the next six months (our house) so it's a bit different really.Sorry if this isn't the sort of post you're looking for!
