Which rules apply in Coity?
Here is what usually applies to a Coity job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.
- An electrical inspection and test at least every 5 years, with the report given to the contract-holder within 14 days.
- Mandatory licence for HMOs with 3 or more storeys and 5 or more people in 2 or more households; Wales did not adopt England’s 2018 change.
- Councils such as Cardiff and Swansea run additional licensing for HMOs outside the mandatory scheme.
- Landlords must register with Rent Smart Wales, and those who manage their own lets need a Rent Smart Wales licence.
