A landlord has been fined £19,975 for renting a property in north London illegally. The Haringey Council discovered the house was operating as a House of Multiple Occupancy without a license. Three households lived at the property, violating council licensing laws. The landlord's fine was initially set at £23,500 but reduced due to a new policy for early payment. Haringey Council leaders emphasized the enforcement of housing laws and the commitment to ensuring tenant safety and rights.
A rogue landlord has been fined nearly 20,000 for renting out a north London home to five people without the correct license.
Haringey Council found that a home in Duckett's Green, near Turnpike Lane Tube station, had been rented out by room and had not been signed up to the council's scheme.
The fine was reduced to 19,975 thanks to a new policy which allowed him to get a 15% discount for paying the fine within 28 days.
Tenants deserve safe, well-kept homes, and we won’t tolerate those who undermine that standard.
