Rented house inspection

Hithere246

Hi there. I'm a landlord who got notice of an inspection from a county council. The house is kept well and tenants keep it well also. I had a quick look at the legislation but want to make sure it goes well. It was built in 2001. Any advice from landlords who've been inspected would be much appreciated. TIA

Fire safety is prob the main concern. Make sure they have a fire blanket for the kitchen, smoke alarms and the windows open and close fully.

Otherwise they will prob just look at basic structure and health and safety.

Mine was inspected but i was letting to the council. It wasn't bad the house was new and kept well. I think i had to clean the gutters and fix a sink. That was about it.
