Tenant charges which you can expect to pay before the tenancy begins:  

Holding Deposit - This is collateral during the application process. This £100 holding deposit will go towards your security deposit once we receive satisfactory checks. The holding deposit is non refundable once paid.
For example – the asking deposit is £500.00 and rent is £500.00 per calender month. 
You will initially pay a £100 holding deposit to progress the application. Once satisfactory references are complete you will be required to pay another £400 to complete the deposit and then pay your first month’s rent of £500 the day before you collect your keys.

Weekend or Evening Move in/out - £45.00 - If you wish to collect keys or return keys outwith our usual working hours (Mon- Fri, 9am-5pm) then this can be arranged. An out of hours fee of £45.00 will apply.

Re- Arranging contract signing date - £15.00
This fee will apply if the contract signing date is changed within 72 hours of the date/time agreed as this will result in new contracts having to be drawn up.
