What action is required to gain access to property?

The contract you draw up with the tenant should allow you access for any maintenance or safety check work to be carried out.
You have to take "all reasonable steps" to ensure this work is carried out, and this may involve giving written notice to a tenant requesting access, and explaining the reason.
Keep a record of any action, in case a tenant refuses access and you have to demonstrate what steps have been taken. If a tenant continues to refuse access after repeated contacts, you may need to consider proper action through the courts under the terms of the tenant’s contract. However, you must not use force to gain entry into the property.
All landlords that make use of the Just4Let full management package can rest assured that we will adopt the correct relevant procedures in assuring that your property is maintained and safe at all times.
