Tenants Scale of Charges

Holding Deposit: If you choose to take the tenancy on one of our properties we will ask you to pay a holding deposit of one week’s rent per property. This is taken as a holding deposit to reserve you the Property and will be reimbursed off of the first month’s rent, unless you fail the credit checks and referencing and then we will be entitled to deduct and retain from the holding deposit. E.G. If the rent is £850pcm then the holding fee will be £196.15. We will be entitled to deduct and retain from the holding deposit if you decide to withdraw from the tenancy or if you fail your credit checks, provide false or misleading information, fail to provide the documents or evidence requested or fail the right to rent checks; it will be refundable if the landlord decides to withdraw.
Our deposits are calculated as the same amount as one month’s rent and if pets are allowed then this would usually be five weeks deposit. (This will be stipulated in the description).
Additional Charges:
Rent Default Charges –In the event of any rent default, interest of 3% above Bank of England base rate will apply to any rent due from the day of any default. The interest can only be charged in the event that the rent default continues for a minimum of fourteen days after the rent default occurs. For the current Bank of England base rate please visit the following website

Key/Security Device Lose - Should the tenant lose their keys/security device to pay the Landlord for the reasonable cost of providing replacement keys or security devices for the property up to a maximum of £50 inclusive or greater where the Landlord has receipts or evidence to show such costs have been incurred.

Breakage Clause – Pay the Landlord, where a surrender of the tenancy has been agreed, any losses incurred by the Landlord on acceptance of the surrender, which could be but not limited to the remaining rent for the term, re advertising costs, utility supply costs, council tax and costs for any legal services retained. If the landlord allows then the tenant can be released from the contract on payment of 50% of the first months’ rent (plus VAT) or £300 (inclusive of VAT), whichever is greater. (E.G. If the monthly rent was £600, the fee would be £360 inclusive of VAT). Once a new tenant has moved into the property the liability will be on the new tenant and the current tenant will be released from the contract. (Should your rental amount be higher or lower than the example price, your breakage fee will be correspondingly higher or lower).

Contract Amendments/Variation/Assignment/Novation - Pay the Landlord a maximum of £50 inclusive or greater where the Landlord has receipts or evidence to show such costs have been incurred, for each amendment/change to the Tenancy Agreement requested by the Tenant and agreed by the Landlord.
All fees are shown inclusive of VAT.
