** YOUR HOLDING PAYMENT EXPLAINED

The tenancy application

Thank you for applying to rent a property from one of our Landlords. Before your application can be fully considered, you will need to pay to us a holding payment equivalent to one week’s rent for the property you are interested in. This document explains what happens to that holding payment and the circumstances in which the payment will / will not be refunded. It is important that you know your legal rights and accordingly you should feel free to seek independent legal advice before signing this or indeed any other document which we might put before you.


Once we have your holding payment, current legislation stipulates that the necessary paperwork should be completed within 15 days or such longer period as might be agreed.


In the present case, it has been agreed that the relevant period will be extended to the number of days shown below, from when we receive your holding payment (if required)


If at any time during that extended period you decide not to proceed with the tenancy, then your holding payment will be retained by our firm. By the same token, if during that period you unreasonably delay in responding to any reasonable request made by our firm, and if it turns out that you have provided us with false or misleading information as part of your tenancy application or if you fail any of the checks which the Landlord is required to undertake under the Immigration Act 2014, then again your holding payment will not be returned. It will be retained by this firm.

However, if the Landlord decides not to offer you a tenancy for reasons unconnected with the above then your deposit will be refunded within 7 days. Should you be offered, and you accept a tenancy with our Landlord, then your holding payment will be credited to the first month’s rent due under that tenancy.

Where, for whatever reason, your holding payment is neither refunded nor credited against any rental liability, you will be provided with written reasons for your holding payment not being repaid within 7 days.

You will not be asked to pay any fees or charges in connection with your application for a tenancy. However, if your application is successful under our standard assured shorthold tenancy agreement, you will be required to pay certain fees for any breach of that tenancy agreement in line with the Tenant Fees Act 2019. In consideration of us processing your tenant application, you agree to pay those fees to us on request.
