When you make an offer on PropertyLoop, you have the option to add special conditions. These are specific requests you’d like the landlord to consider as part of your tenancy.
It’s a useful way to make sure important points are agreed upfront, but remember — the landlord does not have to accept every request.
Examples of Special Conditions
Some common conditions tenants include are:
-
Furniture requests
-
Asking for certain furniture to be provided (e.g. a bed or desk)
-
Requesting that furniture be removed if you plan to use your own
-
-
Repairs or works before move-in
-
Requesting minor works such as repainting, carpet cleaning, or replacing appliances
-
Asking for the property to be professionally cleaned before the tenancy begins
-
-
Tenancy term or flexibility
-
Proposing a longer tenancy term (e.g. 18 months instead of 12)
-
Adding a break clause so you can leave earlier if needed
-
-
Other practical requests
-
Permission to redecorate a room
-
Agreement to allow a pet
-
Clarifying included bills or services (e.g. gardener, cleaner)
-
Example Special Condition Clauses
Here are some sample wordings you could adapt:
-
“The landlord agrees to provide a double bed in the master bedroom before the tenancy start date.”
-
“The landlord agrees to remove the sofa and dining table before the tenancy start date.”
-
“The landlord agrees to have the property professionally cleaned prior to move-in.”
-
“The tenancy term will be 18 months with a tenant-only break clause after 12 months.”
-
“The landlord agrees to allow one small dog to live at the property, subject to the terms of the tenancy agreement.”
What Happens Next?
Any special conditions you add will be passed to the landlord along with your offer. The landlord may:
-
Accept the conditions
-
Reject them
-
Negotiate alternatives
It’s important to only include conditions that are genuinely important to you. Adding too many requests can make your offer less attractive.
👉 Adding special conditions is a great way to tailor your tenancy, but keep in mind that flexibility and compromise often help secure the property.
