Approved Tenant Charges

The only payments you can expect in connection with a tenancy are:

A)the rent

b)a refundable tenancy deposit capped at no more than five weeks' rent. This will be held in a Deposit Scheme as security for the performance of all obligations in connection with the tenancy for example in the case of any damage at the end of the tenancy or a charge to an independent company providing a deposit alternative service, if offered.

C)A refundable holding deposit (to reserve a property) capped at no more than one week's rent. Example - equivalent to One Weeks Rent – i.e. £1,000.00 pcm rent equates to £230.76 holding deposit).

We can retain in this holding deposit if you:

•Provide false or misleading information which reasonably affects our decision to let the property to you (i.e. Calls into question your suitability as a tenant, this can include your behaviour in providing the false or misleading information).
•Fail a right to rent check
•Withdraw from the proposed agreement (decide not to let) or
•Fail to take reasonable steps to enter an agreement (i.e. Responding to reasonable requests for information required to progress the agreement) when the landlord and / or agent has done so.

Where we wish to retain the holding deposit, we will set out in writing the reason for this within 7 days of deciding not to enter the agreement or the 'deadline for agreement'. The 'deadline for agreement' for both parties is usually 15 days after a holding deposit has been received by a landlord or agent (unless otherwise agreed in writing).
