EICR Guide for Winchester Landlords

Since June 2020, all landlords in England must have a valid EICR for their rental properties. The report must be obtained before new tenancies begin and renewed at least every 5 years. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to £30,000. Landlords must provide a copy of the EICR to tenants within 28 days and to the local authority within 7 days if requested.
