HOLDING DEPOSIT A Holding Deposit equivalent to no more than one week's rent is payable to reserve a property while pre-tenancy checks are undertaken. The Holding Deposit is refundable and, with the Tenant's agreement, can be credited towards the first rental payment or Tenancy Deposit following the signing of the Tenancy Agreement. The Holding Deposit may be retained only in circumstances permitted by the Tenant Fees Act 2019, including where a prospective Tenant withdraws, fails a Right to Rent check, provides materially relevant false or misleading information, or fails to take reasonable steps to progress the tenancy. The standard Deadline for Agreement is 15 calendar days from receipt of the Holding Deposit, unless otherwise agreed in writing. For joint tenancies, the one-week limit applies to the tenancy as a whole, not each individual Tenant. TENANCY DEPOSIT A refundable Tenancy Deposit is payable, capped at: - Five weeks' rent where the annual rent is less than £50,000. - Six weeks' rent where the annual rent is £50,000 or more but does not exceed £100,000. The deposit will be protected in a government-approved Tenancy Deposit Protection Scheme within 30 days of receipt, with the prescribed information provided in accordance with the legislation. RENT Rent is payable in accordance with the Tenancy Agreement, normally by monthly bank standing order. Rent cannot be requested or accepted before the Tenancy Agreement has been signed. Following signature, a maximum of one month's rent may normally be requested in advance before the tenancy commences. LATE OR UNPAID RENT Interest may be charged on rent outstanding for 14 days or more, at a maximum rate of 3% per annum above the Bank of England base rate. This provision must be included in the Tenancy Agreement. COUNCIL TAX Tenants may be responsible for Council Tax, payable directly to the relevant local authority where applicable. Full-time students may qualify for exemption, subject to eligibility. UTILITIES AND COMMUNICATION SERVICES Tenants may be responsible for electricity, gas, water, sewerage, telephone, broadband and other communication services where these are not included within the rent. Any bills-inclusive arrangements or utility recharges will be specified in the Tenancy Agreement. Recharged utility costs must comply with the applicable legislation. TELEVISION LICENCE Where required, Tenants are responsible for obtaining and paying for an appropriate television licence directly to TV Licensing, unless included within an agreed bills-inclusive package. LOST KEYS AND SECURITY DEVICES Tenants may be charged the reasonable actual cost of replacing lost keys, fobs or other security devices, including any necessary lock changes. Written evidence of the reasonable costs incurred will be provided. VARIATION, ASSIGNMENT OR CHANGE OF SHARER Where a Tenant requests an agreed change to the Tenancy Agreement, including a change of sharer, a charge of up to £50 (inc. VAT) may be payable. Where the reasonable costs actually incurred exceed £50, a higher charge may be made, provided the additional costs are reasonable and supported by appropriate evidence. ENDING TENANCY Tenants may end an assured periodic tenancy by giving the required written notice in accordance with the applicable legislation. The usual statutory notice period is two months, expiring on a rent payment date or the day before. Where a Tenant fails to give the required notice, a payment may be recoverable up to the CLIENT MONEY PROTECTION AND REDRESS 2C Properties Limited is a member of Client Money Protect (Membership No. CMP003390) and The Property Ombudsman, an independent redress scheme.
