Deposit Protection and key information


We have summarised key pieces of information that you may need to know.

Deposits
All our residential tenants' deposits are protected and held by the Deposit Protection Service. Each property requires a deposit, and this will be equivalent to 5 weeks’ rent at the time the tenancy was taken.
To check your deposit, please follow the link: www.depositprotection.com/im-a-tenant/
