FAQ â What can a tenant do if the landlord does not provide the security deposit? The landlord has 10 days to deliver a statement of account with a cheque for the security deposit (if there is money owing after any deductions) to the tenant. âDeliverâ means the landlord must put the statement in the mail within 10 days of the tenant moving out. It does not mean the tenant has to receive it within 10 days.
Below are the standard deposit options available: 1 Monthâs rent. The most common by far is for landlords to ask for a deposit amounting to 1 monthâs rent. For example if you charge Â£750 per month in rent then you would ask for Â£750 as a deposit. 6 Weekâs rent. Asking for 6 weeks rent as a deposit is fast gaining popularity with private landlords. This is a result of record high arrears after years of low wages, pay cuts and job losses taking their toll on tenants.
