Frequently asked questions

From inventory checks to council tax, we know there's a lot you need to remember as a landlord. For any pressing questions, take a look through our FAQs to see if we have the resources you need, or you can contact our team directly.

Inventory

Q. What is an inventory?

A. A tenancy inventory is a document that details the condition of a rented property and any contents, fixtures and decoration within it. It is important to compile an inventory to see if anything within the property has changed at the end of the tenancy. If repairs or replacements need to be made, the landlord will use the tenancy inventory to deduce who is financially responsible for these. If the tenant is responsible, the cost will come out of their deposit, so the document may be needed to settle any disputes that arise between the landlord and tenants.

Repairs

Q. What are a landlord’s repair obligations?

A. Almost all the repairs that are required from a landlord are those that relate to the property, such as its structure and exterior, sinks, baths, pipes, gas appliances, ventilation and hot water. If the damage was caused by a tenant, then this is usually cause for them to pay for the repairs themselves. Otherwise, you can discuss with them at the end of the tenancy if there are repairs that need to come out of the deposit.

NRLA

Q. What is the National Landlords Association?

A. The National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA) is an organisation in the UK that looks after the best interests of private-residential landlords. They have no limit on portfolio size, from a single property to many, and make sure that in government and in the media, landlords are being considered. If you become a member, they also give landlords advice on how to become successful from their lettings business.

Insurance

Q. What insurance do I need as a landlord?

A. There are a number of different insurance types that we would recommend as a landlord. These include landlord liability, buildings and content insurance, the latter being especially important if your property is furnished. You may also wish to take out loss of rent insurance for potential rent arrears. Though it is not required by law to have insurance, there are many buy to let mortgages that include this as a stipulation.
