Private Rented Sector
Ashford Borough Council works closely with private sector
landlords and local Housing Associations to ensure high
standards in privately rented accommodation.
We have extensive powers and responsibilities to ensure
that individually occupied properties, family occupied properties,
and houses in multiple occupation (HMOs), meet required
standards.
The authority also has powers to take action to bring empty
homes back into residential use to increase the supply of privately
rented homes.
For further information about condition of the private rented
stock or queries about an empty home contact the Private
Sector Housing Section of Housing Services on 01233
330339.
