TENANT FEES
Information about tenant fees can be found here.
Holding Fee
As of June 2024 we are now charging a holding fee of £100 per property. This secures the property just for you whilst referencing etc takes place. The £100 will be discounted from the first months rent. This fee is fully refundable should you change your mind before the referencing takes place or should the landlord change his/her mind, or you are unable to meet the referencing criteria, through no fault of your own. However if you decide not to proceed with you application once the referencing process has been undertaken, or are found to have given incorrect information during the application, the holding fee will probably be kept by the agent. Please see the terms within the Holding Fee Information for Prospective Tenants, which you will be given in full to read before making the decision to make a holding fee payment.

Landlords Costs
You must be aware that your contract states 2.3
You will pay us (landlord) all reasonable losses, fees, damage costs and
expenses we incur: such as court costs, bank charges, professional fees,
landlords fees incurred due to a breach of contract/repossession order, late or
outstanding fees etc. These costs cannot be specific but could be significant.
The Landlord would be pursuing these costs and not the managing agent.

to cover all costs, charges and expenses incurred and properly due. These
cost would be calculated by the landlord getting quotes for any works required
based on the checkout report or any further expenses incurred during the
