🚨 THURROCK LANDLORDS: COULD YOU BE RENTING ILLEGALLY WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT? 🚨

This isn't clickbait.

Over the last few months, I've spoken to several landlords who had absolutely no idea that their rental property may require a Selective Licence under Thurrock Council's licensing scheme.

The worrying part?

Many of them were experienced landlords who genuinely believed they were fully compliant. 🏠

Failure to obtain the correct licence could result in:
❌ Significant financial penalties
❌ Enforcement action
❌ Difficulties managing your tenancy
❌ Potential legal complications

The good news? A quick check now could save a lot of stress later.

In our latest blog, we explain:
✅ What Selective Licensing is
✅ Which landlords may be affected
✅ What documents you'll need
✅ How to avoid getting caught out

Do you know what type of construction your property is? Because your mortgage lender definitely does 🧱

There's a big difference between a standard brick built property and a Leckerplan — and it could affect whether you can even get a mortgage on it.

Here's what you need to know:

🏠 Brick built = standard construction. All high street lenders will mortgage it, no issues.

⚠️ Leckerplan = precast concrete construction. These were built post World War 2 and while they're solid properties that sell really well — your mortgage options are limited. Halifax and Santander are currently your main lenders for these.

It doesn't mean you can't buy or sell one — it just means you need to know before you make an offer, not after.

We flag construction type for every buyer we work with. Link in bio.
