Flat Bush homes and what they need
Newer homes usually make Healthy Homes compliance simpler, but you still need the records, and larger homes mean bigger heating calculations for open-plan living areas. Some developments have a residents' society or shared accessways that need to be covered in the tenancy agreement.
With large homes and larger households, thorough tenant checks and routine inspections every 13 weeks are the best way to keep the property in great condition.
