For landlords and property managers

Security deposits, recorded from handover to return

Every deposit has its amount, form and holder on the tenancy. A deposit cheque sits in the cheque register, and at the end of the tenancy a task reminds your team to return it, with a receipt.

How it works

The deposit, step by step

  1. Amount, form and holder

    Recorded on the tenancy file; forms, holders and deadlines follow the rules for your emirate.

  2. Deposit cheque in the register

    A deposit cheque is linked to the cheque register, and every handover of the cheque stays in its history.

  3. Move-out compared with move-in

    The move-out protocol compares each room with move-in, so any deduction has its evidence.

  4. Return with a receipt

    At the end of the tenancy, a task with a deadline. The return, in full or in part, closes with a receipt and is then fixed.

What stays with you

  • Zolia records the deposit; it never holds or moves money.
  • Deductions are decided by people, with the protocol as evidence.
  • Every step stays on record in the tenancy file and in the evidence pack.

Questions and answers

Who holds the deposit?

The landlord or your office, as recorded on the tenancy. When the deposit cheque is handed to the landlord, the holder changes with it.

What happens at the end of the tenancy?

A task reminds your team to return the deposit by the deadline. The return closes with a receipt.

Can part of the deposit be kept?

Your team records the amount returned, and the move-out comparison shows the evidence room by room. The decision stays with people.

Does the software hold the deposit?

No. It records amount, form, holder and return; the money stays with the landlord, your office and the bank.
