Tenancy deposit law was introduced on 6th April 2007 to give more protection to tenants by preventing landlords and letting agents from unfairly witholding a tenants deposit. You can download leaflets and posters for more information.
Landlords and letting agents can order the leaflet ‘ ‘Letting? – Are you protecting your tenant’s deposit?’ which explains what they need to do to comply with the new legislation.
The following leaflets are available to tenants and explain what to expect under the new legislation.
Posters are available to download/order for organisations working in the Private Rented Sector:
