Tenancy responsibilities

Once your tenancy begins, it’s your responsibility to look after the property. If any maintenance problems arise, let Greenway know straight away so we can address them promptly.

You can reach out to us via phone, email, or social media. To ensure the property stays secure, always lock it properly, and if you’re planning to be away for an extended time, please inform us to meet insurance requirements for the landlord.

Inventories

An inventory will be prepared prior to the start of your tenancy and handed to you when you move in.

You’ll need to review it, confirm its accuracy. This record is key, as it will be used to assess the condition of the property at the end of your tenancy. Checking it carefully helps to avoid any misunderstandings later on.

Inspections

At Greenway, we conduct routine inspections for all properties under our management to support both landlords and tenants.

These inspections include both internal and external assessments of the property’s condition. After each inspection, a detailed report is prepared. Tenants will receive written notification in advance of the scheduled appointment.

Utilities

All utility bills, including electricity, gas, water, and internet, are included in your rent, so there’s no need to set up accounts or worry about unexpected costs.

However, it’s important to use utilities responsibly. The tenancy agreement allows for reasonable use of heating and electricity, ensuring everyone enjoys a comfortable living environment. Excessive use, such as leaving heating on all day with windows open, may result in additional charges.

Please note that the utility providers are chosen and managed by us, and students are not permitted to switch providers during the tenancy.

Insurance

Tenants are responsible for arranging contents insurance to cover their personal belongings.

Landlords, on the other hand, must ensure the property itself is covered by appropriate buildings insurance.

Fees

Fees are always a concern for tenants so we have made them transparent and clear for you to understand. Just click HERE.

Things to Know Before You Arrive.

Transport

Public transport links in Cornwall are reliable but less frequent than in big cities. Consider investing in a bike or car if you’ll be traveling often. Trains connect to major hubs like London, and there are regular buses around the main towns.

Lifestyle Costs

Living in Cornwall is often more affordable than in larger UK cities. However, plan for some added costs if you want to enjoy the local lifestyle, like eating out or weekend trips.

Weather

Cornwall’s coastal climate means it’s often mild, but be prepared for wind and rain—especially in winter. Pack waterproofs and cozy layers (and the obligatory flip flops!)
