  • Therefore, as the legal representative of your Landlords it is the responsibility to Managing Agents to advocate for Landlords & have precise, detailed & complete documentation of the systems you have in place to ensure the installation, annual testing, service & maintenance of smoke alarms in all rental properties as part of your standard business practices & procedures
  • Some Managing Agents & Landlords are unclear of their responsibilities & assume they have sufficiently fulfilled their legal responsibilities if:
