Just One Week to Rent Smart Wales

It is just one week until the Welsh government launches its Rent Smart Wales scheme.

The new regime will enforce compulsory licensing and registration of all landlords and letting agents in Wales. The Welsh government has released a code of practice to help landlords and agents stick to the law.

All landlords and agents that belong to the scheme must adhere to the requirements of the code or risk losing their license. This means that they would be unable to let or manage any residential properties.

The first part of the code sets out what landlords and agents must do to comply with the law.

The second contains information on what can be done to raise standards above the minimum level required by the new scheme.

Find the code of practice here: http://gov.wales/topics/housing-and-regeneration/housing-supply/renting/privately/landlord-and-agent-registration/rent-smart-code-of-practice/?lang=en
