Ignoring Maintenance
and Repairs
Regular inspections and
maintenance can prevent minor
problems from becoming bigger
and more expensive.

stakeholders can lead to
misunderstandings, missed
deadlines, and unnecessary costs.

Ensuring the lease agreement
complies with UK laws and
regulations and includes all relevant
information, such as rent amount,
payment terms, and notice periods,
is essential.
