Our tenants set our BTL on fire last year in August rendering it totally uninhabitable. There was no roof, electrics, or plumbing left. We started the delisting with the Valuations Office in September and it was only delisted in February...

Reply to the comment left by CYRIL STALEY at 29/04/2022 - 19:51You are welcome, come back to me if I can help. It was a steep learning curve taking our rogue agent to the PRS but worthwhile.

Reply to the comment left by CYRIL STALEY at 23/04/2022 - 13:45The agent has to display whether they are a member of the Property Redress Scheme or the Property Ombudsman scheme, it should be on the bottom of their paperwork...
