Hi All,
We are planning on moving from the USA and need to find a pet friendly place to rent. We have a CAT and am finding it difficult to find one.
Would appreciate if anyone could lead me in the right direction to find one.
Thank you!
Hi from England.
May help if you specify areas you are looking, budget, number of beds, number of tenants, work status.
Admittedly it is much harder to rent with pets, although landlords do accept them if tenant ticks the right boxes. All you can you is keep applying and hope you land on one.
I would register with estate agencies in towns you are looking, build rapport and convince them you are a safe bet.
TBH
It will be difficult
Make sure you have all your documents for quarantine etc etc
References from your previous landlord regarding pet damage
When I took a tenant from Canada with a cat ( my first pet owner ) I charged 20% extra on the rent .
He was an animal trainer so it wasn’t a problem
I found out I had allergies so have stopped doing it
I ended up with a dog on the QT last year
I increased rents by 10.1%
It didn’t cover the damage
On a twelve month tenancy you need another 20% leverage to even begin to cover damages
I would offer and therefore budget a minimum of £1k additional rent for damages that may be incurred by a pet
