"Despite multiple warnings from the council, the landlord failed to take the necessary actions to remedy the situation, demonstrating a blatant disregard for her legal obligations as a landlord."
"This case is a reminder to all landlords of their legal obligations to address deficiencies in their rented properties, and the importance of adhering to housing standards and regulations."
A landlord in North London, Rosa Giddy, was fined over £5,000 after leaving her tenants without heating or hot water for a year due to a broken gas boiler. Enfield Councilâs investigation revealed serious health risks posed to tenants during winter, further exacerbated by Giddyâs failure to furnish necessary safety certificates. Pleading guilty to non-compliance with an abatement notice under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, Giddyâs actions were condemned by Enfield Council as demonstrating a lack of concern for tenant welfare. The case emphasizes landlords' legal responsibilities to ensure safe living conditions.
