lords favour an assured shorthold
tenancy because it entitles them to
take back the property after six
months. Tenancy Deposit Schemes -
All landlords operating an assured
shorthold tenancy have to sign up to
this. It obligates them to place tenant
deposits in one of three schemes
approved by the government within
14 days of receipt. If not complied
with, the courts can force the deposit
to be tripled and repaid immediately
to the tenant or in extreme cases it
may be difficult to get possession of
the property.
As for the property itself, landlords
must maintain and repair it as
required. This includes anything
that affects the structure and exteri-
or as well as the electrical, heating,
hot water and sanitary conditions.
Landlords must ensure all furnish-
ings (sofas, beds, chairs etc.) comply
with fire and safety regulations.
An annual inspection by a Gas Safe-
registered engineer is essential. The
landlord must arrange the checks
and keep records of appliance test
dates.
All electrical appliances need to be
certified safe when a tenancy begins,
maintained throughout tenancy by
competent persons and fit for pur-
pose at all times.
