Milton Keynes Council has launched a brand new accreditation scheme for landlords to help them improve standards and deliver better homes for tenants.
Landlords signing up to scheme will receive 12 months free membership of the National Residential Landlord Association (NRLA).
The NRLA has over 90,000 members and represents the interests of landlords in the private rented sector across England and Wales.
Landlords that have a membership can receive day-to-day support, expert advice, access to template documents, webinars and other support. You can find out more on an online scheme found here.
Milton Keynes Council says it is committed to improving housing conditions for private tenants and wants to work with homeowners to help them become better landlords.
Cabinet Member for Adults, Housing and Healthy Communities, Cllr Emily Darlington said: “This accreditation scheme will help landlords better understand their role and responsibilities.
"Every family deserves to live in a warm, safe and decent home that meets all the necessary standards. Our partnership with NRLA will give landlords added support to ensure they’re complying with the guidelines so they can provide better homes for their tenants.”
