SAFETY
Keeping your property safe is essential, with the growing number of disputes between landlords and tenants over the quality of homes, the Fitness for Human Habitation Act has placed a number of obligations on landlords to ensure they assess regularly. Tenants are not always able to identify safety issues within a home and its a landlords responsibility to ensure that they employ a service to keep them compliant.
