A three-year banning order has been imposed on R&G Agent Ltd and its directors, Rafael Mendes Torres and Evandro dos Santos Gomes. The order was issued by the First-tier Tribunal.
Banning orders are among the strongest enforcement tools available to local authorities in the UK and are reserved for the most serious housing offences. Breaching a banning order is a criminal offence.
This action highlights the importance for letting agents and inventory clerks to ensure compliance with housing standards and regulations. The case serves as a reminder of the significant consequences that can result from serious breaches of property management responsibilities.
