How it works in detail
Not legal advice. The rules are those of the Tenant Fees Act 2019, Schedules 1 and 2.
- No more than one week’s rent, and only one holding deposit per home at a time.
- The deadline for agreement, and what happens when it passes.
- Applied to the rent or the deposit, repaid, or kept for a permitted reason.
- Kept only if written reasons were given within 7 days; otherwise it is flagged for repayment.
