Landlord Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started as a Landlord
As a landlord, you must ensure your property is safe, habitable, and legally compliant. This includes gas and electrical safety, securing tenant deposits, and handling repairs.
Depending on your location, some councils require properties to be licenced before they can be let out. Check with your local authority for regulations in your area.
We recommend booking a Free Expert Rental Valuation for a tailored assessment of your property’s rental value.
