Decode a Letting Agent's Standard Tenancy Agreement

Letting agents present tenancy agreements as standard and non-negotiable. Some of it is. Some of it is not. This translates the key clauses into plain English, flags anything unusual or one-sided, and tells you the three things worth checking in person before you hand over a deposit.

**Translate** the key clauses into plain English. Cover:
1. What the tenant is agreeing to do (obligations)
2. What the landlord is agreeing to do (landlord obligations, which are often buried or absent)
3. Any clauses that are unusual, potentially unfair, or worth questioning before signing
4. The three most important things to check in person or photograph before moving in, based on this agreement
