Account Landlord VS Private Center

Deposit Security

  • Landlord Account: The deposit is under the direct control of the landlord, which may raise concerns for the tenant regarding its full and timely return, especially if breach of contract is alleged.

  • CPMASC: Offers greater security for both landlord and tenant. The deposit is held in a neutral account, ensuring that funds are only released under the conditions agreed in the contract, minimizing disputes.

Transparency in Management

  • Lessor Account: Transparency may be compromised, as the lessee has no visibility or control over the funds once they are in the hands of the lessor.

  • CPMASC Increases transparency as both parties have clarity about the status of the deposit. The escrow service acts as an impartial arbitrator, managing the funds according to the agreed terms.

Dispute resolution

  • Landlord Account: In the event of disputes, the tenant may face challenges in recovering their deposit if the landlord refuses to return it, which could lead to legal proceedings.

  • CPMASC: Provides a more structured mechanism for dispute resolution. By acting as a neutral third party, the escrow service can make decisions based on the contract, reducing the need for litigation.

Ease of Administration

  • Landlord Account: Requires the landlord to directly manage the deposit, which implies additional liability and potential complications in the event of non-compliance.

  • CPMASC: Simplifies warehouse administration. The service takes care of all aspects related to the management of funds, freeing both parties from this administrative burden.

Trust between the Parties

  • Landlord Account: It can generate distrust on the part of the tenant, especially if there is no prior relationship of trust.

  • CPMASC: Strengthens mutual trust, since both parties know that the deposit is handled fairly and in accordance with established rules.
