Holding Deposit- Equivalent to one weeks rent
The holding deposit is required to secure the property, take it off the market and conduct the tenant application process including references, signing of contracts, deeds of guarantee and any administration involved in agreement to let.
The holding deposit is equivalent to one weeks rent. If applicants choose to split this between them, payments must equate to a weeks rent in total. For example, if the rent is £780pcm and there are three applicants, the holding deposit will be £180 in total but can be split to £60 each to collectively make the full week.
The agreed deadline for completion of paperwork will be outlined in your application form and welcome email/letter. On the basis that paperwork is completed as instructed by the applicant(s), the holding deposit will be allocated to the first month's rent.
*Instances where a holding fee is non-refundable and the property is re-marketed includes;
Provision of false or misleading information in the application process (eg. Not declaring adverse credit, stating income is higher than actual). Applicants/guarantors pull out of the application Applicants fail to complete the required application process in the agreed turnaround time In special cases, a mutual extension agreement may be facilitated to finalise paperwork. If the applicants again break their deadline, then the holding deposit will be retained and the property re-marketed.
Damage Deposit- Usually equivalent to one months rent (up to 5 weeks, or 6 if annual rent exceeds £50,000)
In the majority of cases, your landlord will expect you to pay a damage deposit in advance of the tenancy start date which is lodged with one of the three government approved schemes; The TDS, dps or MyDeposits.
Your landlord or agent (depending who manages the property) will protect your damage deposit and provide you with the related prescribed information.
The deposit will be held throughout the duration of your tenancy by either a custodial or insured scheme and returned to you after your tenancy ends, minus any agreed deductions (should any apply).
Deposits for properties managed by Bricks & Mortar are protected with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS).
Please note: We cannot accept payments of the deposit by any third party. We can only accept payments of the deposit by named tenants only. Any attempt of payment by a third party will be refunded and not treated as form of payment towards the deposit.
First Months Rent
As part of the sign up procedure, you will be asked to provide the full months rent upon completion of the sign up procedure (therefore once contracts are signed). Usually this will be 15 days after making your application, subject to the agreed start date being significantly in advance. If your tenancy begins in less than 15 days from application, a mutual date for payment will be agreed on application to the property.
Once contracts are signed, your first months rent is non-refundable as you will be bound to the obligations of the contract.

Holding Fees are calculated on a sliding scale:
Rent of £100 - £199pcm = £20 Holding Fee Rent of £200 - £299pcm = £45 Holding Fee Rent of £300 - £399pcm = £65 Holding Fee Rent of £400 - £499pcm = £90 Holding Fee Rent of £500 - £599pcm = £115 Holding Fee Rent of £600 - £699pcm = £135 Holding Fee Rent of £700 - £799pcm = £160 Holding Fee Rent of £800 - £899pcm = £180 Holding Fee Rent of £900 - £999pcm = £200 Holding Fee Rent of over £1000pcm = £230 Holding Fee
The holding fee is non refundable in the eventuality that you withdraw from the process, fail the right to rent checks, provide false or misleading information, or fail to provide requested information within 15 days of the holding deposit being paid. The holding fee will go towards the move-in monies (rent) on successful applications. We will provide you with our referencing criteria when you apply for a property or upon request. Before moving into the property you would need to pay the first month's rent and tenancy deposit (normally a month's rent + £25). Eg If the rent was £500pcm then the deposit would be £525.
Alternatively, instead of paying a deposit you can purchase a 'Reposit'; a deposit replacement product that allows tenants to pay a non-refundable fee equal to one week's worth of rent (inc VAT). There is a £30 annual renewal charge if you stay in the property beyond the first 12 months. You remain liable for the full cost of any breach of your tenancy agreement, but benefit from not paying the lump sum deposit upfront. You must pass referencing to be eligible for this product. T&C apply.
A higher rent may be required where the landlord agrees to the tenant having a pet. Not all landlords will consider pets so this should be confirmed with us prior to viewing. As a general rule blocks of flats will not allow pets under the terms of the lease. All negotiations and payments are subject to contract. Please note that we require identification and proof of address from anyone over the age of 18 who will be occupying the property. This should be a passport with a utility bill dated within the last 3 months (a full list of acceptable id is listed on the government website under 'Right To Rent').
Rental properties are dealt with on a first come, first served basis so be quick to avoid disappointment! We have client money protection (RICS) and are members of The Property Ombudsman Scheme.
Potential Costs During The Tenancy:
- Unpaid Rent - Interest at 3% above the Bank of England Base Rate from Rent Due Date until paid in order to pursue non-payment of rent. Levied when the rent is more than 14 days in arrears. - Lost Key(s) or other Security Device(s) - Tenants are liable for the actual cost of replacing any lost key(s) or other security device(s). - Variation of Contract (Tenants Request) - £50 (inc. VAT) per agreed variation. - Early Termination (Tenants Request) - Should the tenant wish to leave their contract early (and where the landlord agrees to this early vacation), the tenant shall be liable for the landlords costs in re-letting the property as well as all rent due under the tenancy until the start date of the replacement tenancy. These costs will be no more than the maximum amount of rent outstanding on the tenancy. - Company Lets - Our fee (payable on move in) is half of one months rent + VAT (60% of one months rent) subject to a minimum of £300 + VAT (£360) to cover the costs associated with processing the application, referencing and arranging the tenancy agreement.
