Nottingham Renters

We have recently served a legal notice to make improvements to a building covering 3 flats.
The pictures below show the conditions in the flats, which includes ceiling damaged due to penetrating damp, scorched and cracked socket in use and a window repaired using parcel tape to prevent draughts.
We are working with the licence holder to get them to fix these issues.

We inspected a property recently and found 16 defects or safety issues, including broken windows, rotting doors, dangerous plug sockets and unsafe stairs.
We also found internal and external damp and mould, broken heaters with no fixed heating and water flushing onto the bathroom floor.

It is a landlord’s responsibility and the conditions of the licence to make sure the home they rent out to tenants is safe and up to living standards. The below photos show some of the issues we found. We are working with the licence holder for them to fix these issues.

Landlords you will require a Selective Licence if your property is in the designated area and if you are renting to:
• One or more occupants forming one household (e.g. a family or a single individual) or;
• Two unrelated individuals who form two households (e.g. two friends)
