Buy to let - what are my responsibilities as a landlord?


It's up to you to follow legislation, including regular inspections and maintaining tenants' rights. You must handle repairs and maintenance, rent collection, tax payments and other legal requirements correctly. Items to keep up‒to‒date include:

- Annual gas safety inspection

- Energy Performance Certificate

- Property and landlord insurance

- Liability insurance

You can either manage everything yourself or hire professionals to take care of it for you. For example, you can avoid all the hassle of day‒to‒day management by taking on a fully managed service from your letting agent. Our sister company Foxtons can do exactly that for you.
