How confident are you that your lettings business is fully compliant? 🤔

If your answer is "pretty confident," this episode of The Viking Chats might change your mind.

Kristjan sits down with Paul Conway (founder of Yuno) to unpack why compliance in the PRS has become a moving target — licensing schemes, fire safety, Awaab's Law, MEES, the Renters' Rights Bill, and more.

The takeaway? What you don't know can cost you. The agencies that thrive won't be the biggest — they'll be the ones who stay ahead of it.

🎧 Essential listening for anyone in lettings or property management.

🏠 Decent Homes Standard: What Landlords Need to Know

The new Decent Homes Standard is coming, and it’s a big deal for landlords. It sets a single quality benchmark for both social and private rental homes.

Here’s the gist:
✅Safety first – serious hazards like fire, structural, or electrical risks must be fixed.
✅Kitchens & bathrooms – it’s now about condition, not age. A well-kept 20-year-old kitchen is fine; a poorly maintained new one isn’t.
✅Core services – plumbing, heating, electricity, and child-safe windows.
✅Energy & comfort – whole-home heating, insulation, and efficiency improvements are key. EPC rules are changing, so a C rating today might not cut it tomorrow.
✅Damp & mould – now a standalone requirement alongside recent renters’ rights laws.

💡 Why act early? Waiting could cost more and limit your finance options. Lenders are already factoring energy efficiency into mortgages, and demand for contractors will skyrocket as 2035 approaches.

💡 Start now: audit your properties against these five areas, prioritise safety, damp, and energy efficiency — and think of it as a portfolio plan, not just compliance.

How can we help you?

🏚️ Rental Horror Story

A landlord has been fined over £5,600 after leaving a tenant living with severe damp and mould, no hot water, a faulty boiler, electrical issues, and even a front door that wouldn’t lock.

Despite repeated complaints and an official improvement notice, many of the repairs were never carried out. The tenant’s health and wellbeing suffered as a result.

A reminder that rental properties aren’t just investments, they’re people’s homes. Keeping on top of maintenance isn’t just good practice, it’s a legal responsibility.

We genuinely care about both landlords and tenants. Our property management service is designed to spot issues early, keep properties well maintained, and make sure problems never get the chance to spiral.

A survey of 500 UK landlords and 2,000 tenants reveals some surprising truths! 🤝

🔹 66% of tenants have a positive relationship with their landlord.
🔹 77% maintain good communication.
🔹 Only 13% report a negative experience.

Landlords aren’t just collecting rent – they’re actively improving tenants’ lives! Over a third of tenants say their landlords have gone above and beyond – from offering help to allowing pets and cosmetic changes to properties. 🏡

In fact, nearly 2 in 3 tenants say their landlord is easy to reach when needed.

Looks like the landlord-tenant relationship is healthier than the headlines suggest!

50 years in property. One truth that never changes: the industry never stands still. 🏡

In this episode of The Viking Chats, Kristjan sits down with Ed Mead — from 1970s London estate agency, to helping build Douglas & Gordon, to founding Viewber.

They talk mentors, PropTech that gets it wrong, AI's impact on the industry, the Renters' Rights Bill, and why Ed changed his mind on mandatory agent qualifications.

Honest, no-nonsense, and packed with perspective from someone who's seen it all.

Because in property, just when you think you've seen everything... the industry never stands still.

📍Origin Coffee

Tucked away on a quiet side street just off buzzing Old Street is Origin Coffee's flagship shop.☕

Espresso is their specialty, and every month they roll out "session coffees" . These are special blends built around a specific process, varietal, or origin country. Such a cool way to explore coffee.

Add in the sleek East London aesthetic and a gorgeous robot mural by the front window, and you've got the cosiest little neighbourhood spot.

If you're ever near Old Street, go find Origin.

Worth every visit. 🤍
