Welsh Landlords Face Fines for Not Informing Tenants of New Rules
Landlords in Wales have until Sunday, 14th June, to inform tenants about anti-discrimination rules under the Renters’ Rights Act. The Welsh government has stated that landlords must provide tenants with either a new occupation contract or a statement of variation.
The changes are being introduced as part of the Renters’ Rights Act. According to Property118, failure to comply with these requirements could result in fines for landlords.
Letting agents and inventory clerks operating in Wales should be aware of these new obligations. Ensuring that tenants receive the correct documentation by the deadline is essential to avoid penalties.
