Question #78

With a let property, do I need to get the electrics checked?

From 1st June 2020 it became a legal requirement to provide tenants on all new lettings with a copy of an EICR certificate, confirming that the electrics are safe. This was then further expanded to all new and existing tenancies on 1st July 2021. A certificate will last for five years and we can assist with arranging these checks to be carried out.
