Landlord’s Responsibilities Toward a Tenant – Buy to Let Property?

It is not sufficient if a landlord visits the rented property to find if things are fine there. It is important to take certain responsibilities in order to avoid any problems in future; it will help both the landlord as well as a tenant. He should not only keep the premises in a habitable condition but also should not intrude into the privacy of his tenants. Until and unless the tenant is involved in something illicit or is troubling the neighbours, no landlord will interfere otherwise. If he feels that the tenant is involved in anti-social activities, is a drug peddler or is troubling the neighbours, as per the rental agreement he has the right to evict such a troublesome tenant.

It is also a tenant’s duty to look at the rental agreement carefully. If there are items left in the house and it is mentioned in the rental agreement, he should make sure that those items are present in the house. He should also inspect the condition of it, if not he will get screwed badly, at the time of leaving the house.

It is the responsibility of landlord to fix the plumbing line in case there is some problem.
