What fees and deposits apply?
Do I have to pay a deposit for my apartment?
Our tradition deposit is equal to one month's rental, to be paid prior to moving in. All deposits are protected through the TDS and held for the length of the tenancy. We also offer a non-deposit option, having teamed up with Flatfair, which is available subject to terms and conditions.
What sort of contracts are available?
We offer tenancies between 6 months - 5 years, which all include a 2-month break clause, should your circumstances change.
What kind of pets are allowed?
TURA is pet-friendly, though there are a few restrictions on type, size, and breed. As a general guide, small pets are okay, but medium and large ones might not be. You can view a copy of our Pet policy here. Pets must always be on a lead in the building and are not permitted in the gym or on our terrace.
Why should I use flatfair?
Whilst removing the need for expensive deposits that often overlap between tenancies, flatfair also provide an easier, fairer way to pay for – or dispute – end of tenancy charges made by your landlord or letting agent.
Does flatfair require tenants to be referenced?
Yes, all flatfair members must meet our minimum referencing criteria which is broadly in line with lettings agency standard referencing.
How does deposit-free renting with flatfair work?
Flatfair’s No Deposit is a simple and safe alternative to traditional tenancy deposits. Instead of paying a large upfront deposit, tenants pay a small, non-refundable check-in fee of one week’s rent (or £120, whichever is greater) plus VAT.
For example, if two tenants, Josh and Emma, are sharing an apartment, they would join flatfair (subject to referencing) and split the check-in fee between them.
Can I use flatfair if I've already paid a deposit?
Flatfair can simply convert your deposit into a flatfair membership and return the original deposit amount (Subject to agreement by the landlord).
When using flatfair, can the check-in fee be split between the household?
Yes, the flatfair check-in fee is a one-off payment which can be split evenly across the household, in the same way you might have split a traditional deposit payment.
I want to end my tenancy early, is there a charge to flatfair for this?
There are no early termination charges to flatfair if your tenancy ends earlier than expected. However, if you need to leave before the end of your tenancy, your landlord or agent can charge an ‘early termination’ fee to cover any reasonable costs. For example, rent up to the end of your fixed tenancy period or costs to find a new tenant. It is important that you speak to your landlord to discuss this with them directly.
Do flatfair reward good tenants?
Tenants who stick to their rental obligations build up a strong flatscore and benefit from a range of future discounts, as well as the credibility.
When does my flatfair membership expire?
Flatfair’s security expires in line with the tenancy end date, or after 24 months (whatever comes first). It can be extended at any time through the flatfair platform, free of charge.
