a) the rent
b) a refundable tenancy deposit capped at no more than five weeks' rent. This will be held in a Deposit Scheme as security for the performance of all obligations in connection with the tenancy for example in the case of any damage at the end of the tenancy or a charge to an independent company providing a deposit alternative service, if offered.
c) A refundable holding deposit (to reserve a property) capped at no more than one week's rent. Example - equivalent to One Weeks Rent – i.e. £1,000.00 pcm rent equates to £230.76 holding deposit).

• Fail a right to rent check
• Withdraw from the proposed agreement (decide not to let) or
