Before you move in:
Holding deposit per tenancy:
This is to reserve a property. A refundable holding deposit of £100 is required to secure the property and will be used to form part of your first month’s rent.
Please Note: This holding deposit will be non refundable if any relevant person (including any guarantor(s) withdraw from the tenancy, fail a credit check or provide false or misleading information.
Deposit/ Bond
This is equivalent to 1 months rent + £100. This is paid on the day you move into the property in cleared funds and in addition to your 1st month’s rent. The deposit will then be held with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme for the duration of the tenancy.
Pet deposit: £100 per pet in addition to the deposit/bond and is due in cleared funds on the day you move into the property.
