    Scotland operates a different system of Renting compared to England and Wales and I believe all landlords need to be registered.
    This makes No difference to you but the huge demand for rentals in most cities and towns is causing issues with lots of people searching for a suitable property to rent.
    I could list just some of the requirements.
    EPC, EICR, GSC, Fire safety ! CO alarms.
    Right to rent
    How to rent
    Fit for habitation
    Deposit protection and limits ( 5 weeks max )
    Tenancy agreement contract
