Licensing Information

About Hamletts Ltd

What are the aims of property licensing?

Licensing of private rented accommodation aims to ensure that:

  • the landlord is accredited and/or trained
  • there are plans in place to deal with anti-social behaviour
  • the property meets minimum standards to ensure the health, safety and welfare of the occupants are safeguarded
  • the landlord is a ‘fit and proper person’ or employs agents who are
  • management arrangements are in place to report and carry out repairs
  • the accommodation has enough space and facilities for the number of occupiers
  • good landlords are not disadvantaged financially by those who operate below the standards required.

Licensing requirements may vary between different local authorities.
