Holding Deposit:
When an offer has been submitted for a rental property and accepted by the Landlord, subject to contract and references to include 'right to rent checks', previous landlord references (if available) and the necessary affordability/credit checks, Best Gapp will request a 'Refundable Holding Deposit' equivalent to one (1) weeks' rent to reserve the property and proceed with the tenant reference applications. The deposit will be protected in a Government backed tenancy deposit scheme (either Deposit Protection Service (dps) or Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS)).
Tenancy Security Deposit:
This is a refundable payment that a landlord or agent can ask a tenant to make or a relevant person (i.e. Someone acting on a tenant's behalf). This provides a landlord with security if a tenant causes damage to a property, does not return it in its original condition, does not pay their rent or breaks the terms of their tenancy agreement.
The level of tenancy deposit is equivalent to five (5) weeks' rent where the annual rent is less than £50,000, or equivalent to six (6) weeks' rent where the total annual rent is £50,000 or above. The deposit will be protected in a Government backed tenancy deposit scheme (either Deposit Protection Service (dps) or Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS)) within 30 days of taking the deposit payment.

(If required the landlord can charge for the following default payments):
- Late payment of rent
- Loss of keys or other security devices giving access to the property
Changes to the Tenancy:
The landlord or agent may charge a sum of £50.00 (incl. VAT) to the tenant, if the tenant requests a change to the tenancy agreement (eg. A change of sharer or permission to keep pets at the property). If this charge is above £50.00 the landlord will provide their evidence in writing detailing any 'reasonable costs' incurred.
Early Termination:
If the tenant requests an early surrender of the tenancy, the landlord or agent may charge an early termination fee equivalent to the loss of rent incurred.
