Do you know an Accidental Landlord?

If you have just looked outside to find that ToLet signs have appeared around your neighbourhood whilst you were unaware, then you are seeing the spread of the accidental landlord trend - yet another phenomenon of the current downturn not seen in previous times of turmoil.

While this provides a welcome increase in houses available to rent, many of these landlords are quite unaware of the many regulations involved.

There are more than 50 Acts of Parliament and 70 sets of regulations governing the private rented sector and all risk fines if they don’t comply with these laws.

A decent nottingham carlton letting agent will always be able to recommend tradesmen at good prices if any work need doing to the property. The letting agent would make sure that all applicable laws and regulations are abided by and you should be advised accordingly. You can and always should use a professional letting agent to source a suitable tenant and manage your property.
