Letting a Property

Letting
a property can seem very daunting at first and it is very easy to ignore
the rules and regulations so as to make life easier for yourself. 
This is a deadly trap and although you may get away with it to
begin with, one day you will be caught out – especially as many
tenants now have access to web sites such as ours where they can seek
advice and read about the laws governing rental property. 
It can go horribly wrong and cost the landlord money that he can
ill afford to lose as well as potentially face imprisonment. 
Therefore as a landlord it is imperative that you have access to
information and help that will ensure that you abide by the rules and
make money rather than lose it.

All
too often we hear of cowboy landlords who have been caught out and it is
hoped that by reading this booklet and implementing the various bits of
information that you will remain above board and have a happy time
renting your property.  We
also feel that should you use an agent you will have a good
understanding about what to look for in the agency to ensure that you
are not getting trapped into working with a sub standard agency. 
Again there are no regulations as such that prohibit anyone from
running a lettings agency and the sums of money that these people handle
can be rather large.
