Flatfair – a tenancy deposit allternative available from selected Hunters branches

A Deposit Alternative means instead of paying a traditional five weeks security deposit (or six weeks where the annual rent exceeds £50,000), you pay a fee of one week’s rent +VAT to become a member of a deposit free renting scheme which can significantly reduce the up-front costs. This fee is non-refundable and is not a Deposit. Any outstanding costs or damages will be payable by the Tenant(s) at the end of the tenancy.

Hunters Virtual Valuation

During the COVID-19 period, Hunters are offering virtual valuations via WhatsApp and Facetime. These are subject to participating branches and you may not be able to receive one.
