A zero deposit option for tenants, a smart option for landlords…

FCC Paragon has recognised the potential problems for both landlords and tenants when it comes to deposits on rental properties. With more and more legislation which landlords have to adhere to for holding tenants deposits and the increasing cost of living which may mean tenants can’t afford the upfront cost of a deposit, we thought it was about time something changed!

Smart deposit is a warranty product which benefits both the landlord and the tenant. It allows the tenant to move into a property without having to find a large, sometimes unaffordable upfront sum and it covers the landlord for damage to the property AND unpaid rental.

Benefits for tenants

• No large upfront deposit has to be paid, just a small fee to us for providing the warranty cover.
• Tenants can move into properties quicker as they won’t have to save for a deposit or wait for their deposit on a previous property to be released from a deposit scheme.
• Tenants become a more attractive proposition to landlords as they can move in quicker.
• Tenants can move out without the worry of having to wait for their deposit to be repaid to them.
• The one off fee provides a smart deposit solution warranty for the life of the tenancy, however long that may be (only applicable for damage cover, the last months unpaid rental cover must be renewed and paid for by the landlord in line with the tenancy agreement).
