What are deposits used for?
There are two types of deposits we collect.
Holding Deposits
KR Lettings takes a holding deposit of £100. Holding Deposits are taken to ensure to the Agency that you are confident in your interest in the property. Should you choose to pull out after the holding deposit has been taken, this is non-refundable. However, if you go ahead and rent the property in question, the holding deposit will be returned or deducted from your Tenancy Deposit. You can read more about Holding Deposits here.
Tenancy Deposits
Tenancy Deposits are used to secure the cover of any costs from damage to the property or rent arrears. Your deposit will be protected by the Tenancy Deposit Scheme. This means it will be kept in a secure account throughout your tenancy and will be returned to you minus any deductions agreed. You can read more about Tenancy Deposits here.
