Renting with CBLU

Every tenancy we manage runs on the same careful referencing and year-round management our landlords rely on.

How referencing works

The five checks behind every tenancy

As part of letting a property, we carry out reference checks covering personal, professional, financial, employment and rental history. This is the same process described for landlords.

  1. 01

    Personal

    We confirm who you are, so the tenancy agreement is made with the right person from the outset.

  2. 02

    Professional

    We look at your professional standing so an owner can be confident the tenancy is entered into responsibly.

  3. 03

    Financial

    We check that the rent is affordable for you, so the tenancy is realistic for both sides, not just agreed in a hurry.

  4. 04

    Employment

    We confirm your employment, so the income behind the tenancy is verified, not just declared.

  5. 05

    Rental history

    Where you have rented before, we ask how it went, so everyone starts the new tenancy with an honest picture.

We are preparing a dedicated tenant service for this site. Until it is confirmed with the practice, we would rather tell you exactly how a tenancy works in person than publish anything provisional.

If you are looking to rent a property we manage, please get in touch and a member of the team will walk you through referencing, documentation and what to expect.
