As a prospective landlord you will need to provide 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL with various documents (a description of the accommodation, photos, electricity or phone bills, &c.) so that we can prepare your file.
You acknowledge that you have examined this Agreement, and undertake to comply with its terms in all dealings with 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL or with any third directly or indirectly introduced to you thereby.
You own and possess furnished accommodation (an apartment or house) which you wish to make available to a tenant.
You declare that you have legal capacity and are entitled to let the accommodation.
You undertake to make available to your tenant the accommodation and its fully functional services as described to 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL and in this Agreement.
You undertake to take such steps as are necessary to ensure your tenant’s entry into the accommodation, to facilitate your tenant’s residence therein, and to guarantee your tenant’s undisturbed enjoyment thereof. The tenant’s arrival at the start of the tenancy will be by appointment; departure at the end of the tenancy should take place before noon, unless specifically agreed otherwise.
The features of the accommodation, its services and the arrangements for assistance proposed by you will form a material basis for any classification assigned by us and accordingly for a guarantee by you as landlord. That classification is of the essence, since it provides the tenant’s assurance as to the quality of his/her tenancy.
You must tell 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL without fail of the dates of your accommodation’s availability over the next three months at least.
You must notify us immediately if these periods of availability change, as a result of occupation not arranged through us or for any other reason. For its part, 3, 2, 1...INTERNATIONAL undertakes to inform you of every letting as soon as it is confirmed by the tenant.
Advertising
You acknowledge that 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL may classify your accommodation at its discretion, and may reproduce as its own material the details and information about it which you have supplied. You undertake to allow a member of our staff to visit your accommodation, in particular with a view to assigning or renewing its classification.

RENT
If the accommodation is assigned a classification by 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL, the rent you charge will be set by mutual agreement between us during an on-site visit by a member of our staff. You will be responsible for providing an invoice or a receipt if requested by the tenant. The rent agreed will be net, and will be billed in full to the tenant, who will also be required to produce a security deposit, paid by the tenant on moving in. This security deposit is only retained for leases of a month or more, and is to be refunded at the end of the tenancy provided the property has been occupied properly with no loss or damage beyond normal wear and tear. You undertake to refund any booking deposit paid by a tenant who subsequently cancels the booking not later than 21 days before the tenancy is due to begin.
INSURANCE
It is your responsibility to take out landlord’s insurance cover against risks associated with renting your accommodation to temporary tenants, and also, if you require it, against tenants absconding.
For short-term lettings (under three months), 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL can offer insurance against cancellation of bookings/tenancies and third-party liability, for a premium payable by the tenant.
In the case of lettings longer than six months, 3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL can in certain cases offer insurance against unpaid rent, for a premium payable by you.
MANAGEMENT
3,2,1...INTERNATIONAL can offer management of your lettings under the terms of a simplified Agency Appointment (management of rents and outgoings, security deposits, drafting and signing of leases, and statements of property condition on handover).
