There are two deposits to be aware of:
Holding Deposit – capped at one week’s rent. This reserves the property while we carry out referencing checks. It is usually applied towards your first month’s rent or returned if you don’t proceed (subject to terms).
Security Deposit – capped at five weeks’ rent (where annual rent is under £50,000). This is registered with a government-approved Tenancy Deposit Scheme and returned at the end of the tenancy, subject to the property being left in good order.
Both deposit amounts for each property are clearly displayed on the property listing.
