Details

When renting a property to a tenant under an assured shorthold tenancy a landlord will frequently take a deposit. The law on how a landlord deals with tenancy deposits has changed and become more onerous to a landlord since the introduction of the Housing Act 2004. There is some confusion and uncertainty over when and in what circumstances deposits must be registered or reregistered. This has resulted in much case law to clarify the position for both parties.

This book aims to provide an introduction and analysis of the law on tenancy deposits in assured shorthold tenancies and covers the requirements under the legislation, how it applies to different scenarios and the consequences of failing to comply. It seeks to serve as a useful initial reference guide for agents and solicitors alike and encompass an overview of the relevant legislation and case law.
