Deposits are a hot topic for all tenants, and rightly so. How can you ensure you get yours back in full? One of the most important things is thoroughly checking the inventory when you check-in, before you've moved your stuff in. Cross-check it with the property itself. Anything that doesn't seem right, query it with your letting agent or landlord.

Phil Spencer is joined again by Maxine Fothergill, President of ARLA Propertymark, in episode 7 of season 6 of the Move iQ podcast. The two discuss in detail those frequently asked questions and share advice to help make renting easier.
