Why We Use Home Let for Tenant Referencing

At Quicklet NI, we partner with HomeLet, one of the UK’s most trusted tenant referencing and rental protection providers. HomeLet has been supporting letting agents and landlords for over 25 years, offering accurate, efficient, and secure checks that help ensure the right tenants find the right homes.

Using HomeLet allows us to make informed, fair, and consistent decisions,  giving landlords peace of mind and tenants confidence that the process is handled professionally.

What Our Tenant Screening Process Involves

When you apply to rent a property through Quicklet, your details are securely shared with HomeLet for referencing. The tenant screening process includes several key checks:

1. Identity and Right to Rent Verification

HomeLet confirms your identity and ensures you have the legal right to rent a property in the UK.

2. Credit and Financial History Check

Your financial background is reviewed to identify any major credit issues such as County Court Judgments (CCJs) or bankruptcies. This helps us confirm that the rent amount is affordable and sustainable for you.

3. Employment and Income Verification

HomeLet will verify your employment details and income level to ensure you meet affordability criteria for the property.

4. Landlord or Letting Agent References

If applicable, HomeLet will contact your previous landlord or letting agent to confirm your rental history, payment reliability, and overall conduct as a tenant.

What Tenants Can Expect During the Process

The referencing process is quick, simple, and handled mostly online. Once your details are submitted, HomeLet may reach out directly to request additional information or supporting documents.

You’ll be updated throughout the process, and all personal data is handled confidentially in line with GDPR regulations.
