there are 70 different acts of parliament which cover renting - join the National Landlords Association and get reading their magazines !! they also have a great legal help line. https://www.singingpig.co.uk is probably the best property discussion forum around. DONT be tempted to do it yourself at first - its a lot more complex than it looks. Use an agent for 6 months, learn from them, then have a go yourself. If you have 3 tenants who are not related, you will have a House in Multiple Occupation and will have to register with the local authority.
i have lost count of the number of amateurs i know who have been shafted by poor tenants.0
