While not legally mandated, as a landlord, you are responsible for ensuring the safety of all electrical devices. Regular inspections, even if informal, are advisable to ensure continuous safety.
All necessary furniture should be equipped with a “permanent label” verifying its fire resistance. We can offer a comprehensive list of items that need to comply with fire safety standards upon request.

Should you wish to evict a tenant mid-tenancy, it requires a valid reason or mutual agreement. Breaches in the tenancy agreement are legitimate grounds for eviction.
TPO, or The Property Ombudsman, is an impartial organization dedicated to resolving disagreements between property agents and consumers.

Improving an EPC rating can be done in several ways: switching to LED bulbs, adding insulation, installing efficient boilers or smart meters, and opting for double or triple-glazed windows.
Yes, tenants can contest a rent hike. The best approach is a dialogue, aiming for a mutually agreeable amount. Should there be no consensus, you retain the right to terminate the lease post the current contract.
