Customer product review
To make sure this incentive will work for the customer and Pegasus Homes, a review
of the customers circumstances will need to be carried out between 2–4 months from
the tenancy start date.
If terms are agreed and the incentive is taken, 6 months in to the tenancy, Pegasus
Homes will issue a notice to vacate the property within 6 months. At this point the
resident will be reminded that beyond this date they will incur full rental costs.
If the customer cannot complete on their new purchase, they will need to move
out of the development within the timeframe given on the notice to vacate.
When the customer completes on their new purchase, the AST will cease to apply
to the tenant as they become the new owner.
