Nil Deposit Option

Tenants can move in and pay NO Deposit! Landlords still get up to 6 weeks rent cover!

Paying a Security Deposit when tenants move into a new rented property has always been the traditional way for landlords to protect themselves against any dilapidations or damage caused by the tenant when they leave the property.

However, finding the money to pay this deposit can be very difficult for ingoing tenants especially when the paying the first month’s rent and other associated costs with moving home. This can be made much more difficult if the tenant’s previous deposit has yet to be returned.

Our ‘Nil Deposit’ option allows the tenant to move into the property for just ONE WEEKS RENT plus VAT!

However, landlords will still receive the entitlement for any breach of the tenancy agreement up to a maximum of 6 WEEKS RENT – which is actually MORE than the 5 weeks rent cap recently announced by the Government!

FOR TENANTS

A fantastic alternative to traditional deposits

Taking the ‘Nil Deposit’ option removes the requirement of finding a usual deposit – usually around 5 – 6 week’s rent – in addition to the first month’s rent and other moving costs.
The tenant will pay the equivalent of One week’s rent + VAT, as a non-refundable fee.
The tenant will remain liable for any breach of contract or damage caused to the property and will be required to reimburse the costs of against any claim. As with the traditional deposit, any disputed claim will be decided by an independent adjudicator.
For rentals with more than one tenant, a lead tenant is nominated.
Tenant’s Liability Insurance must be in place. This will protect any accidental damage to the property, fixtures and fittings.

What’s in it for you?

Less money required to move into the property.
No interaction required by the tenant with the Government Deposit Schemes
A much simpler way of ending the tenancy.
