Rent and tenancy fees

Rent

To check rents in your area, use the register of fair rents on GOV.UK.

Bills

Some landlords include gas, electricity or water charges in the rent.

If bills are included, your landlord should give you an itemised statement showing how much you are paying for each service.

If bills are not included in your rent, you will need to pay them separately.
