Landlord electrical safety certificate

Lyle, I did not have electricians in mind! Just those in splendid isolation and pass judgement remotely. The market level for rental was set long ago and I do not expect it to change much for electricians.


Perhaps, like yourself, I was priced out of the domestic rental arena years ago, about 2005/6. However, this new law seems to be big news as I have been inundated with requests from landlords the last few weeks. It usually goes along the lines of  "how much?" , then varying levels of abuse and some fumbled attempt at pulling my heart strings with "but I am a businessman/woman striving to make a living and how am I able to do that and help all those poor tenants if I have to pay more than a hundred quid?"



Out of interest I pitched a couple of one bed flats at £160 each to see how the rough end has developed since I left it in 2006 . Wow....part P has a lot to answer for. These had been let for 15 years. Regularly "tested" as per landlord parlance and the most dangerous dwellings I have ever Inspected.
