Recorded Webinar: HMO Management Regs England and Wales
Protect yourself and your agency from penalising fines and criminal prosecution, Some letting regulations have no maximum penalty … hence the £99,000 fine awarded by Bexley Magistrates Court in November 2008 … and that was reduced from £110,000. Was this a mass murderer, no it was someone not complying with the Management of HMO Regulations. Can you really afford to miss out on this webinar? We call these the Cinderella regulations as they carry bigger fines and affect far more properties than licensing, and yet few are talking about them so they are unknown. Attend this webinar and don’t risk getting caught out. For this webinar we recommend you have attended or listened to the “What is an HMO?” webinar to ensure you have the correct basic understanding.
