Common use of HOLDING DEPOSIT Clause in Contracts

HOLDING DEPOSIT. A holding deposit is generally taken from a tenant applying to rent a property. The purpose of the holding deposit is to reserve the property and to verify the Tenant's serious intent to proceed, and to protect the Agent against reasonable expenses (carrying out references, conducting viewings, re-advertising) that may be incurred should the Tenant decide to withdraw the application. The holding deposit does not protect the Landlord against loss of rent due to the Tenant deciding to withdraw, or references proving unsuitable although early acceptance of rent from the applicant would not be advisable until satisfactory references have been received. Landlords should notify the Agent where they wish insurance to be undertaken to protect against loss of rents. This fee is not a tenancy deposit until it is transferred on the establishment of the tenancy.
