Association for Rental Living: Customer Charter: Consumer Standards & Transparency
- We will provide clear documentation on residents’ rights and obligations at the start of every tenancy and commit to publishing a transparent complaint handling process.
- Where multiple groups want to rent the same property, we will never consider factors like race, age, gender or any other protected characteristic to make a decision on who to rent to.
- We will allow sharers to move-in and move-out, and change the tenants on the lease in the same property (subject to referencing and meeting affordability criteria).
- We welcome families and households with children, offering longer term tenancies of up to three years if possible
- As an industry we are open to discussing what data makes sense to be transparently available for stakeholders to understand what is happening in the market.
