MandatoryElectical Safety Checks for all private rented properties

The Government has announced they will introduce a mandatory requirement for landlords in the private rented sector to ensure electrical installations are inspected every five years. This is part of plans to drive up standards across the PRS and reduce deaths, injuries and fires caused by electrical faults.

While NALS fully supports the introduction of these checks to keep tenants safe, this is another measure from Government that will need to be enforced to be effective. We look forward to seeing more detail on the plans. You can read the full announcement from Secretary of State for Communities, Rt Hon James Brokenshire MP.


As many of you will know Martin & Co predicted this move and has been working with landlords to roll-out electrical safety across our managed portfolio.

  2. Planning ahead can help the agent land more exclusive clients and he should always be thinking about how he can increase footfall into his office. Estate Agents in London are also well versed with the local laws and regulations regarding buying and selling property. To know more about property valuation, check this site.
