Foxtons Property Management have partnered with Kamma to protect our Landlords’ assets by ensuring compliance.
Compliance is complicated. There are at least 150 laws that can affect a tenancy, and even more in some local areas. With many of these laws, enforcement is left to local councils, which makes regulations all the more uneven and confusing. Kamma has reported that, in London, over 65% of councils are operating at least one licensing scheme, and that UK licensing changes every eight days, on average (Property Reporter).
Brush up on legislation for London lettings with our Compliance Checklist.
When a Landlord starts the process of listing their property with Foxtons, we remind them to contact their local council and check what local regulations they need to comply with. A growing number of Landlords who have requested us to manage their tenancy said they’ve made the switch so that our legislation experts could ensure their property remains compliant.
Our team of experts have a range of resources, the latest of which is Kamma – a data platform designed to identify and monitor which laws and regulations apply to each property – so we can provide consistently up-to-date and reliable information whenever our Landlords need it.
If you’re having trouble keeping up with compliance, switching to Foxtons Property Management will save you time and protect you from fines. You do not need to have listed your property with Foxtons to use our Property Management services either. Get in touch to get started.
Fran Giltinan, Managing Director - Property Management & Customer Experience, Foxtons, says:
We are thrilled to partner with Kamma and have access to their compliance management and analysis services. As the regulatory landscape continues to change, it's essential that we stay ahead of the curve and continue to protect our Landlord’s assets. This partnership will give our agents the support they need to continue providing exceptional service to our clients while remaining compliant with the latest regulations.
