All applicants are assessed on their outgoing credit commitments and basic expenditures relevant to renting a home. These findings are then be compared to the applicants monthly income to determine if the rent is affordable to the applicant(s). HomeLet presents this figure to the agent/landlord on the final report, which will give an understanding of the maximum rent that the applicant is able to afford based on the applicants declared monthly income. All applicants must be fully referenced by HomeLet

20% of that is £440.00

Minus applicants monthly outgoings £400
