Improve regulation of letting agents including new statutory regulator
We believe there is an urgent need for better regulation of letting agents. We think the current system is broken, and that it seems to protect system abusers, not victims.
We call on the UK Government to create a new statutory regulator for letting agents with powers to investigate financial irregularities, admit whistleblower evidence, enforce stricter penalties, and ensure more joined-up enforcement with local councils, police and Trading Standards. We think landlords and tenants should not be left alone to fight for justice, and that the system must protect them.
