Holding Deposit:

Upon receiving interest on our properties, we require a holding deposit to be paid prior to us starting the referencing process. The holding deposit paid to us by the prospective tenant, isn't an agency fee and is therefore, refundable and or deducted from the first rental instalment. A holding deposit is paid to secure the property whilst we proceed with references subject to interest and agreement between ourselves, the Landlord and the prospective tenant.

The method of which we calculate holding deposits is below, please note a holding deposit is equivalent to one week rent instalment.

Calculation Method:

Rent amount, multiplied by 12 divided by 52 equals the payable amount of the holding deposit as a total of one weeks rent.

Security deposit:

Security deposit is equivalent to one month or five weeks rent unless not required by the Landlord. The deposit will cover any damages caused by the tenant throughout their tenancy period.

Five weeks rent is calculated by a method of (Rent multiplied by 12 divided by 52 multiplied by 5).
