How to get section 21 and deposits right
Iris Ferber and Andrew Carter discuss how to navigate the numerous rules in play in regards to deposits and section 21 notices.
The pair consider the following questions:
- What are the rules on taking tenancy deposits?
- Can you serve a section 21 notice when a deposit has (or has not) been taken?
- What if a deposit was taken, but it did not comply with the rules?
- Can a landlord later correct errors made when the deposit was taken?
- … and why are the rules so mind-bogglingly complicated…?
