Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I have to pay a deposit?
This secures your booking, so that you can take a little bit of time to complete your contract without worrying. Your deposit will also be used to pay any damages that may occur during your tenancy.
What happens to my deposit? Where is it kept?
Once paid and your contract is signed, we send your deposit to a secure and protected third party, Deposit Protection Scheme.
When will I get my deposit back?
You will receive your deposit back at the end of your tenancy, within 30 days of check out.
Are there any reasons why I wouldn’t get the deposit back?
Why do I need a guarantor?
Guarantors provide us with additional financial security in the event of a change in your circumstance. If you would like to pay in instalments throughout the year, you will need a UK guarantor. If you cannot provide a guarantor, you will need to sign a Full Payment Contract, which means your accommodation fees will be due in one lump sum payment before you begin your tenancy with us. Anyone over the age of 18, who is a UK resident, can be your guarantor.
In what situations might we contact the guarantor?
Circumstances change, we understand that. A guarantor provides assurance to us as your landlords, that there is someone on hand who understands and accepts the responsibility of rent, should you be unable to pay.
What details from the guarantor do I need to provide when booking?
