Renting a Property in Broughty Ferry – What to Expect

Whether you’re looking for a home or a commercial space, renting in Scotland comes with legal protections and clear standards:

Flexible Tenancy Agreements

Residential properties are typically let under Private Residential Tenancy (PRT) agreements, offering flexible terms and tenant protections. Commercial leases vary from short-term to multi-year contracts, depending on the property and business needs.

Maintenance & Safety Standards

Landlords are responsible for keeping properties safe and in good repair. For residential properties, this includes meeting legal safety and energy efficiency standards. For commercial leases, maintenance obligations are usually set out in the lease agreement, ensuring the property remains functional and well-maintained for business use.

Deposit Security

For residential properties, deposits are capped at two months’ rent and must be lodged in a government-approved scheme, protecting tenants’ funds. For commercial leases, deposits are agreed between landlord and tenant, usually reflecting the rent and lease terms, and are held according to the lease agreement.

Transparent Rental Terms

Residential tenants receive guidance on rent, service charges, and obligations under the tenancy agreement. In commercial leases, terms such as rent, service charges, and other responsibilities are agreed between landlord and tenant, providing clarity and helping avoid disputes.

Understanding Rental Costs & Payments

Being aware of rental costs helps tenants and businesses plan their budget effectively.

1

Monthly Rent

Residential rents vary by property type and location. Commercial rents depend on size, location, and business sector demand.

2

Security Deposit

Residential deposits are capped at two months’ rent. Commercial deposits vary based on lease terms.

3

Council Tax / Business Rates

Residential tenants pay council tax unless exempt. Commercial tenants are responsible for business rates.

4

Utilities & Bills

Residential tenants pay utilities unless included. Commercial tenants may also cover electricity, water, and other service charges.

I what to say beware of this company. They may be fine if you want to rent but I warren you if you want to leave a very different matter. They will do all in the power to steal some or all of your deposit. We had to fight tooth and nail to get your back. They sent invoice for cleaning, stating they dusted and polished furniture, this was an unfurnished flat charged for cleaning cooker and appliance they were no appliance, repainting walls totally untrue the lies go on and invoice also stated this was from a company that was dissolved in 2014, staff were rude and very intimating. Take as many picture before and take thousand before you leave if you want your full deposit back, a very nasty and dishonest company

The whole process from finding the property, to arranging the viewing, answering any questions I have had, to signing the lease - as friendly and as smooth as can be. If you looking for a property and Westport are listing something in an area within which you are searching, you will not find a better service.

The student accommodation is very well equipped. Each student has his own room (if he wants his own bathroom) and shared kitchen but everything is managed well and the price is really cheap compared to the alternatives. The location is really close to Abertay University (3 minutes) and close to the city center (5 minutes). The staff is very kind. The cleaning lady is very kind as a mother. My stay of 2 months was satisfactory from all points of view.
