HOLDING DEPOSIT

After your viewing, if you are interested in our room, we will ask for a holding deposit equivalent to one week's rent. This will secure the room while we reference you. The holding deposit is not a cost and can be deducted from your first rent payment when your referencing is complete.

FEES

No admin fees as per tenant fee ban.

Under the ‘Tenant Fees Act’ the following fees can be charged to the tenant, where applicable:

· Holding deposit (capped at one week’s rent and subject to a number of provisions.)

· Rent

· Security deposits (limited to five week’s rent)

· £50 (or higher if reasonable costs are incurred) to change the tenancy if requested by the tenant.

· Utilities, broadband, TV, phone and Council Tax (Non applicable unless a whole house electrical and gas bill totals above £200 per month, when the additional amount will be required of the collective tenants.)

· Replacement of lost keys (at cost)

· Interest on late rent payments (once those payments are at least 14 days late)

Where a tenant breaches their agreement and damage is caused as a result, the landlord can still be compensated via deductions from the deposit or court action.

The tenant is also liable for damages during the tenancy.

The Landlord reserves the right to increase the rent at any point after the initial six months of the contract. Notice of a rent increase will be provided at least a month in advance and will be communicated in writing e. g. by email to the tenant.
