In this month’s edition … we look at some of the budget issues that will affect the housing market, discuss how and why we should deal with mould as soon as it appears,\u00c2\u00a0and discover how FinTech industries might help renters get on the housing ladder.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Property Market Monthly Fact File<\/a><\/h2>\n

The property market fact file is a collection of data compiled each month by our Chartered Surveyors and the\u00c2\u00a0propertysurveying.co.uk<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0team; collating survey data, statistics, trends and information from the property market. This aims to provide a single place where anyone with an interest in UK property can find the most of the information they need.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rent Smart Wales: landlords failing to register<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n

Two years after legislation came into effect, nearly 4,000 of the estimated 90,000 landlords in Wales have failed to register. They are effectively letting their properties illegally, despite being given twelve months to comply.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

January 2018 brings more changes for buy-to-let landlords<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n

The Chancellor’s Autumn Budget delivered yet more bad news for the buy to let landlord in the form of an indexation allowance freeze. New legislation will be introduced in the Finance Bill 2017-18.<\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0\"Mould<\/td>\n\n

Why has mould appeared in my home?<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n

It’s that time of the year again; it hasn’t stopped raining for months, the windows are steaming up and black patches are appearing on the walls.\u00c2\u00a0<\/span>Mould isn’t just unsightly – it can exacerbate some common health problems. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some of the things you can do to treat mould, and prevent it from returning.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
