Your details may be used to keep you up to date on products and services related to your tenancy. At the start of every tenancy we collect a deposit of no more than 5 weeks rent. This is used in the event of breakage or damage caused. The deposit is intended for a potential claim in damages as stipulated in the Tenancy Agreement and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tenancy Deposit Scheme. We do NOT accept a tenant/s request to settle the last months rent using the deposit. If rent is withheld by the tenant/s for any reason, legal action will be taken and/or a report may be made to the credit agency for late or non-rental payments, which may affect your credit rating and/or future applications.

We may request for 1 weeks holding deposit, once received, the Agents can get your references underway as soon as possible. Please note that any offer to rent the Property to you is subject to contract, receipt of satisfactory references and is at our discretion. The Holding Deposit is not refundable if you: • provide false or misleading information; • fail a right to rent check; • withdraw from the property; or • fail to take all reasonable steps to enter into a tenancy agreement. The Holding Deposit is refundable if: • I/We withdraw from the proposed agreement. The Tenant Fees Ban 2019 stipulates that we must enter in to a tenancy agreement within 14 days of you paying the holding deposit. We can agree to extend this timeframe, and I may contact you in due course to that effect. Once everything has been completed satisfactorily, I may contact you to confirm that you’re happy for us to keep the holding deposit, which will be offset against the first month’s rent.
