There’s a BIG difference between ‘clean’ and ‘professionally cleaned’.

If you expect a professional standard, it must be in the tenancy agreement.

Otherwise, tenants only need to return it to the state they received it in.

❌ Myth!

Deposit deductions must be reasonable, evidenced, and agreed.

Otherwise, you risk losing a claim through deposit schemes.

The new government is wasting no time.

A major update has just been confirmed and it will affect your rental strategy long-term.

🏡 All rental properties may soon be required to meet an EPC rating of C or above by 2030.
Yes, even older homes.

And the cost of upgrading?
Estimates suggest up to £10,000 per property.

While ministers are saying it shouldn’t affect rental pricing…
Others have already confirmed that landlords can legally raise rent to cover the cost of upgrades.

That means: Planning now could save you thousands later.

More tenants are sending over personal “rental CVs” to stand out with job info, previous landlords, references and even pet intros.
