Keeping up-to-date with legislation

Rental properties are subject to an increasing amount of legislation and as a landlord you have responsibilities towards your tenants that you simply can’t afford to ignore.

As well as gas safety checks, electrical systems checks, fire safety regulations, Legionnaires Disease checks and legislation, maintenance and repairs, your tenants’ deposits must also be held in an approved deposits’ scheme.

Failure to put your tenants’ deposits in an approved scheme can mean that you lose some of your legal rights if a tenant stops paying their rent and can result in hefty fines or even imprisonment.

Working with a reputable service provider means that you can rely on them to keep you completely up-to-date and compliant with the latest legislation and they will be able to schedule the appropriate checks to ensure that your properties and tenants are suitably covered.
