			<description><![CDATA[Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS) has been established since 2003 giving us 15 years’ experience in tenancy deposit protection.  This experience means that our colleagues have a wealth of information on all issues relating to tenancy deposit protection requirements, minimising deposit disputes and the alternative dispute resolution process.

TDS has a dedicated Business Development team who identify how landlords and agents could benefit of using TDS. Here I look at two members of our Business Development team and explore how their roles help our new customers  get the most of their membership.
