The tenants deposit for the property must be placed in a Government approved tenancy deposit protection scheme for any Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) commencing on or after 6 April 2007 (in England and Wales).

  • A typical deposit will be equivalent to 5 weeks rent.
  • It must be registered with a tenancy deposit protection scheme with 14 days.
