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.
