In this episode of the Expertcast series, Rob is with Ian Denston Environmental Health Officer and Landlord who specialises in the housing side of Environmental Health including HMOs.
Ian trains landlords on HMO compliance and shares key advice for anyone who is an HMO landlord or looking to become one. There is a considerable amount of regulation around HMOs and getting it right and being compliant is very necessary as it’s an area where strict liability applies and tenants may not be in a position to look after themselves.
Ian and Rob discuss both the challenges and the rewards of HMOs in this informative episode packed with great advice and content.
