Private Landlord Registration Enforcement Policy
De-registration
Registered landlords who fall foul of the fit and proper requirements may be de-registered. This means they would no longer be legally allowed to let property in Moray. De-registration will be viewed as a last resort for the Moray Council. Landlords and agents will be given every opportunity to take corrective action. This option will be considered in the context of local housing market needs and the consequences of removing a landlord’s properties from the market. Only the Head of Housing and Property, based on the evidence provided, will be authorised to de-register a landlord.
