Renting a Property in Dundee – What to Expect

Renting in Dundee follows Scotland’s legal framework, designed to protect tenants and ensure a smooth renting experience.

Private Residential Tenancy (PRT)

Most residential properties are let under Scotland’s PRT system, offering flexible tenancy terms and protecting both tenants and landlords.

No Fixed End Date

Tenancies continue until either the tenant or landlord gives valid notice, providing flexibility and stability for renters.

Deposit Protection

Security deposits are legally capped and must be lodged in a government-approved scheme, ensuring tenants’ money is safe.

Landlord Compliance

All rental properties, including commercial units where applicable, must meet safety, repair, and energy efficiency standards, guaranteeing a secure and well-maintained space.

Understanding Rental Costs & Payments

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

1

Monthly Rent

Rent depends on location, property type, and demand, with city-centre and prime commercial areas usually higher than suburban ones.

2

Security Deposit

Usually capped at two months’ rent and refundable if the property is in good condition.

3

Council Tax / Business Rates

Residential tenants pay council tax unless exempt (e.g., full-time students), while commercial tenants may be responsible for business rates.

4

Utilities & Bills

Tenants are usually responsible for gas, electricity, water, and internet, unless stated otherwise, both for residential and commercial properties.

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

Searching and staying in a new city gave me a lot of tension and stress, but Westport Property made the entire process extremely smooth. Right from the start, the team helped me through all the property selections, property viewings, and all the paperwork with a lot of patience and clarity. They used to respond to all my queries in no time and made certain that I was comfortable during the whole process.

As a new international student in the UK, I had significant challenges in securing suitable accommodation. The process of viewing and applying proved time-consuming and complex, with numerous requirements. However, Westport Property's exceptional service proved invaluable.

What an easy, personable experience. The whole team have just been amazing from start to finish, particularly Della and Shona. 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 process has been easy thanks to the great communication with Della, she has always been very helpful and supportive throughout, and we have thoroughly enjoyed our time staying here.

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.
