A tenancy deposit is a security for the landlord which can be claimed against in the event that the tenant does not fulfill the terms of their tenancy agreement. In an ideal world the landlord would have immediate access to this money quickly in the event of any issues to fund necessary repairs to the property caused by the tenant. However if a tenant disputes the landlords claim it can be a time consuming task for the landlord to get what is owed to them.
