Landlords: Damp Mould and Legal Liability || The Insulation Scandal You Need to Know About

Property management made easy [affililate link] 👉 https://www.landlordvision.co.uk?fpr=...

Over 30,000 UK homes received government-funded insulation work through ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme, but a damning National Audit Office report reveals nearly all external wall insulation and a third of internal wall insulation installations are now failing—creating dangerous damp and mould conditions that landlords remain liable for, regardless of who caused the problem. In this video, we break down what actually happened with these schemes, why the failure rate is so catastrophically high, what your legal obligations are when damp and mould appears in your rental properties, and how upcoming tax increases, MEES energy efficiency deadlines, and new Renters' Rights protections are converging to create a perfect storm for landlords already stretched thin.
