Tenancy fees
We’re clear about all of our tenant services so that you can plan ahead of your tenancy journey.
Holding Deposit (per tenancy): One week’s rent.*
Security Deposit (per tenancy): Five week’s rent if rent is under £50,000 per year.
*Please Note: This will be withheld if any relevant person (including any guarantor(s) withdraw from the tenancy, fail a Right to Rent check, provide materially significant false or misleading information, or fail to sign their tenancy agreement (and/or Deed of Guarantee) within 15 calendar days (or other deadline for agreement as mutually agreed in writing).
We know that some tenants can fall behind on rent payments, that’s why we give tenants two weeks (14 days) of arrears to pay their rent until an interest of 3% above the Bank of England base rate is enforced.*
*Calculated on arrears over 14 days late.
Tenants are liable to the actual cost of replacing any lost key(s) or other security device(s).

Variation of Contract: If a tenant wishes to amend or adapt a contract with consent from the landlord, it is the tenant’s responsibility to substitute payment per variation by £50 (inc. VAT). This cost covers the preparation and execution of new legal documents as well as the initial cost of ensuring the instructions of the landlord.
Change of permitted occupier : We know that in some cases you may need to find another tenant to fill the tenancy. If this does occur a cost of £50 (inc. VAT) per replacement tenant, is to be paid by the tenant to cover the costs of new tenant referencing, Right to Rent checks, deposit registration, and the preparation and execution of new legal documents.
Early Termination: Should the tenant wish to leave their contract early, they shall be liable to the landlord’s costs in reletting the property as well as all rent due under the tenancy until the start date of the replacement tenancy. These costs will be no more than the maximum amount of rent outstanding on the tenancy.
