Letting out properties

Letting accommodation is like a business. Records and accounts should be kept, rental income declared for tax purposes and tenancy agreements and contracts need to be clearly drawn up.

As a landlord you will have a number of obligations under any letting agreement particularly with regard to repairs and the serving of any notices which are required under the tenancy.

However letting out a property can be a rewarding experience and can provide a useful second income and a range of organisations now exist to advise and assist landlords.

We are keen to foster a good working relationship with local landlords because privately rented accommodation is essential to meet the demand for housing in Brent.
