Holding Deposit

All of our rental properties require a Holding Deposit equivalent to 1 week’s rent. The Tenant is entitled for this Holding Deposit to be repaid within 15 calendar days of their application proceeding. However, in most cases we hope to repay this to the Tenant on the day you move in and this will be deducted from your first month’s rent. This will need to be agreed with the Tenant during the application process.

You will lose your Holding Deposit if any of the following occurs:

1. You give us false or misleading information. For example, incorrect salary/income details or you fail to tell us about a ccj.
2. You fail a Right to Rent check and are not eligible to reside in the UK.
3. You withdraw your application.
4. You fail to take steps to enter into the tenancy by taking an unreasonable amount of time to complete and submit your application form, failing to provide necessary id and accompanying documents within a reasonable amount of time or being unable to provide a definitive move in date.*

*Please be aware that all of the above is also relevant to any guarantor applications that may support your tenancy.

Reposit - Rent Without A Deposit

This property is available to tenants using an alternative to the traditional deposit (bond) of 5 weeks’ rent.

Using Reposit, tenants are only required to pay the equivalent of 1 week’s rent (or £150, whichever is greater) as an alternative to paying the traditional deposit of 5 weeks' rent. For example, if the rent is £550, the Reposit will be the minimum payment of £150. If the rent is £750, the Reposit will be equivalent to one week’s rent at £173.08.

There is no need to pay a deposit or bond. This is a one-off, non-refundable payment.

Please note that just like a traditional deposit, you are still liable for any valid, end of tenancy charges. The difference with Reposit is that you keep control of your money and only pay these if they actually occur at the end of your tenancy, rather than paying at the start.

Other charges include:

Annual fee of £30, split between all tenants. This is only charged if your tenancy lasts for longer than 12 months.

Dispute fee of £60, split between all tenants. Only chargeable if you wish to dispute end of tenancy charges and is fully refunded if your dispute is successful.

Tenant swap fee of £50. This is only due if there is a tenant swap or if a new tenant is added to the tenancy. It is paid by the incoming tenant only.

Further information is available at .

Deposit (Bond)

The deposit (bond) amount is equivalent to 5 weeks’ rent.
