We are also looking for the tenants to be compatible, because we provide, rather unusually, a garden at the rear of the house that they would share. Therefore, we like to have tenants who are compatible, one with the other. We have a discussion, and we talk about the deposit we are looking for, which, as per statute, is calculated on five-weeks’ rent. We also discuss what rent we would like in advance. Our normal policy is to say that, if there is plenty of the oncoming month left, we expect them to pay rent only until the end of the month, but if it is the very end of a month, we ask them to pay rent for the next month as well. We discuss all this and come to an agreement.
