Use your time wisely - Are you a Landlord in a Licesing area or do you have a HMO? If so does your license have a condition attached to it which says you need to complete a training course? If so then why not head over to our training pages and complete it online from the comfort of your own home.

Tip #5
Think ahead - Keep a COVID 19 diary on ‘how’ you are managing your rental properties at this time.
