Here’s what you need to know about tenancy deposit claims and how we can help you:

Understanding Tenancy Deposit Claims

  • Landlords or letting agents are legally obliged to protect your deposit within a tenancy deposit scheme within 30 days of receiving it.
  • If they fail to protect your deposit or provide you with the required information, you may be entitled to claim up to three times the amount of your deposit.
  • If your landlord has not protected your deposit, they may also be unable to serve a section 21 notice to evict you.

The Importance of Tenancy Deposit Protection

  • A tenancy deposit scheme safeguards your money and ensures you get it back when your tenancy agreement comes to an end, provided you meet the terms of the contract.
  • It also offers an impartial resolution service in case of disputes over the return of your deposit.
  • There are two types of tenancy deposit protection schemes: custodial schemes and insurance-based schemes.

The Process of Claiming Your Deposit

  • If your landlord is withholding your deposit or you believe your deposit has not been protected, we’ll help you gather evidence, including a copy of your tenancy agreement and deposit amount, to build a strong case.
  • We’ll then connect you with a solicitor who will handle your case on a win no fee basis, ensuring you don’t have to worry about upfront costs.
  • Your solicitor will take your landlord to court if necessary, and the case will be heard in your local county court.

Common Reasons for Landlords Withholding Deposits

  • Damage to the property beyond wear and tear: Your landlord may try to keep your deposit to cover damages that they claim you have caused. However, they can’t charge you for normal wear and tear that occurs over time.
  • Unpaid rent: If you owe rent, your landlord may try to keep your deposit to cover the outstanding amount. However, they can’t do this without following the proper procedures.
  • Cleaning costs: Your landlord may try to withhold your deposit to cover the cost of cleaning the property after you move out. However, they can only do this if it’s specified in your tenancy agreement and the property is left in a worse condition than when you moved in.

How We Can Help You Win Your Tenancy Deposit Claim

  • We’ll evaluate your case and determine if you have a valid claim against your landlord or letting agent.
  • We’ll help you gather the necessary evidence, such as proof of your deposit amount and a copy of your tenancy agreement.
  • We’ll connect you with a solicitor who will work on a win no fee basis, meaning you won’t have to worry about upfront costs.
  • We’ll support you throughout the process, from filing your claim to attending your local county court if necessary.

What You Can Expect to Recover

  • If your landlord has failed to protect your deposit or return it within 14 days of your tenancy ending, you could be entitled to claim up to three times the amount of your deposit.
  • If your landlord has not protected your deposit and has served you with a section 21 notice, the notice may be deemed invalid, and you may be able to remain in the property.
