Landlord Prosecuted for Failing to Address Serious Hazards
A landlord has been prosecuted after failing to comply with an Improvement Notice issued by South Holland council. The notice was served to Peter Higgins following an inspection that identified a number of serious hazards at his rental property in Long Sutton.
This case highlights the importance for letting agents and inventory clerks to ensure that landlords address any hazards identified during property inspections and comply with local authority notices.
