Landlords in both the private and social sectors will have new procedures to follow once the Act comes into force. These relate to everything from issuing contracts and serving notice, to property safety and maintenance.
Jonathan Daines, Founder and CEO, lettingaproperty.com, said: “Landlords in Wales are understandably concerned about the new Act and what it means for them. Many self-managing landlords are reaching out for support as they seek to navigate the multitude of changes. While the Act itself is positive news for the future of the rental sector, the need to ensure compliance is concerning existing landlords.”
