Holding Deposit This is £150.00 to reserve a property. This will be offset against the first month's rent. Note this will be withheld if any relevant person withdraws from the application process, fails a Right-to-Rent check or provides false or misleading information. Tenancy Deposit The tenancy deposit covers damages or defaults on the part of the tenant during the tenancy and will be protected in a government-authorised tenancy deposit scheme. Properties with an annual rent of more than £100,000 are not covered by the Tenant Fees Act. Rent The rent payable for the tenancy must not be more than the advertised amount. The rent period must either be one calendar month or a shorter period of up to 28 days. A tenant will be able to end a tenancy by giving two months' notice in writing. The end date of the tenancy must align with the end of a rent period. Rent in Advance of move in date Rent is payable following signing of the tenancy agreement and in accordance with the agreed tenancy terms. For tenancies entered into on or after 1 May 2026, no more than one month's rent may be requested in advance. Late Payment of Rent Interest may be charged on unpaid rent if it remains outstanding for more than 14 days. Interest will be charged at a maximum of 3% above the Bank of England Base Rate from the date the rent became due until payment is made. Lost Key(s) or other Security Devices(s) Tenants are liable for the actual cost of replacing any lost keys or security devices. If the loss results in locks needing to be changed, or replacement security devices being issued, the tenant will be charged the reasonable cost of a locksmith or security engineer, new lock and replacement keys/devices for all relevant parties. Variation of Contracts including Car Parking Space Licenses (Tenant's Request) £50 (inc. VAT) per agreed variation.

VAT) per replacement tenant or any reasonable costs incurred if higher. Includes referencing, Right to Rent checks, deposit registration and legal documentation. Early Termination (Tenant's Request) If the tenant wishes to end the tenancy early (including where less than the required notice period is given), they will be liable for the landlord's reasonable costs. Under an Assured Periodic Tenancy, then the landlord can charge a fee if their tenant does not give the correct amount of notice. The usual amount of notice is two months. The landlord can charge up to the amount of rent they would have received if the tenant had given the correct amount of notice.
