If the landlord has the money registrered with an insurance based scheme, if there is no dispute the tenant can have it back straight away, but a late protected deposit has to go to DPS which takes 10 days to release even undisputed amounts, so the tenant has to find quite a substantial sum to move.As I posted above most deposits I see nowadys are 6 weeks, not 1 month so for a 2 bed flat the tenant has to find the best part of a32k. If they dont have a credit card, savings or a solvent mate to lend it to them they are screwed.Going back to the original article here if the tenant gets 2 month’s notice unexpectedly how will they be able to get a32k together in such a short tiime? If the counter argument to that is that they should have it aside at the start in casee of such an eventuality then with rent in advance they wouldnt be able to take up residence anywhere without having around a35k behind them. With that knd of money they could buy under the new intermediate mortgage schemes.Nobody talks much abaout the length of time it takes the schemes to pay out. This is a major headache for tenants on the move
