This has article has been superseded by events but payment holidays make good media sound bites but no rent or deferred rent means no income into letting agents. How many will survive 3 months+ on a severely depleted income stream? How many landlords will continue to pay a management fee to ensure their property is properly managed even though no rent is coming in? Maybe we will see a change in agency terms that require landlords to pay for work completed not based on rent collected - but only from those that are able to survive the fiscal drought

You’d think it would be seen as an epic failure rather than a success. Repeating this is a tax on the good and compliant landlords while clearly seen as avoidable by the bad. There is plenty of legislation available to the councils to place improvement orders on the bad landlords and those proven to have been registered and compliant should be exempt from further license tax. Why should they pay again for council staff costs to run a failed project for a further 5 years?

I have had more problems with AIIC inventories than I ever have elsewhere including major discrepancies between a check out and check in 5 days apart by same so called qualified clerk - caused major headache with tenant and landlord alike and it is agent who is blamed for incompetence not inventory company I have had major items missed and huge variations in quality. I have been in 2 companies managing over 1000 tenanted properties as well as other smaller ones and only once had one allegation of faking which was disproved on investigation. AIIC should police and quality check those who hold their qualification rather than make out it is a common problem
