PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Landlords and Letting Agents: Standards (25 March 2021)

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many rogue (a) landlords and (b) property agents are listed in the national database; and how many orders banning landlords have been issued in (a) Stockport borough and (b) Stockport constituency.

Asked by:
Navendu Mishra (Labour)

There are 38 landlords and property agents listed on the database of rogue landlords and property agents. The database does not distinguish between landlords or property agents, only individuals and organisations.

There have been no banning orders issued in Stockport Borough or Stockport constituency.

Banning Orders and the database of rogue landlords and property agents are two of a range of tools available to local authorities to tackle rogue and criminal landlords, including civil penalties of up to £30,000 and rent repayment orders.
