What Tenants Can Be Charged
Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, letting agents in England can only charge tenants for a limited, defined list of payments. Everything else — admin fees, referencing fees, check-out fees charged to the tenant, and so on — is banned. As ATLAS, we don't charge tenants fees beyond what the law permits.
| Permitted payment | Cap |
|---|---|
| Rent | As agreed in the tenancy agreement |
| Tenancy deposit | Capped at 5 weeks' rent (annual rent under £50,000) or 6 weeks' rent (annual rent £50,000 or more) |
| Holding deposit | Capped at 1 week's rent |
| Changes to the tenancy, requested by the tenant (e.g. adding a permitted occupier) | Capped at £50, or reasonably incurred costs if higher |
| Early termination of the tenancy, requested by the tenant | Capped at the landlord's loss or reasonably incurred costs |
| Utilities, communication services, TV licence & Council Tax | Tenant's own ongoing costs, where the tenancy makes the tenant responsible |
| Late rent payment (more than 14 days late) | Interest capped at 3% above the Bank of England base rate |
| Replacing a lost key or security device | Reasonably incurred costs, with evidence |
Rent in advance: recent changes under the Renters' Rights Act restrict how much rent can be requested in advance once a tenancy agreement is signed — [to be confirmed with our compliance adviser before this page goes live, including the exact effective date and cap].
Redress & Client Money Protection
Atlas Property Co Cambs LTD is a member of The Property Ombudsman, an independent redress scheme, so you have somewhere to turn if something goes wrong and we can't resolve it directly. We also hold Client Money Protection (CMP) — scheme and membership number [to be confirmed] — which protects rent and deposit funds held on your behalf.
