Periodic and Other Visits

Landlords have a common law obligation to maintain a let property reasonably free from disrepair. The local authority may take enforcement action if they identify risks including, but not limited to, hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) under Part 1 of the Housing Act 2004. Letting/renting a house in multiple occupation (HMO) adds specific management obligations for landlords and occupiers, and these obligations are detailed earlier.
