Tenancy deposit scheme

From 6 April 2007, all deposits taken by landlords for Assured Shorthold Tenancies in England and Wales, must be protected by a tenancy deposit protection scheme. From this date, tenants should ask their landlord about the details of the scheme when signing a new tenancy agreement.

Salford safe deposit scheme launched

Good quality private rented accommodation is available throughout Salford. We want to help more individuals and families to take up private rented tenancies, managed by landlords who are members of Salford's Landlord Accreditation Scheme. The aim of the scheme is to provide assistance to people who can't afford to pay cash deposits. The Safe Deposit scheme is only available to properties that have been accredited through the Landlord Accreditation Scheme.

From 1 October 2008 landlords are required by law to provide an EPC when they rent out a home. For further information please contact the accreditation team on 0161 793 3270.
