England - mandatory registration scheme for short-term lets is coming

See government statement of 19th February 2024 via link below: 

 

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/delivering-a-registration-scheme-for-short-term-lets#:~:text=In%202023%2....

 

Essentially, all Airbnb users in England will need to register their property (even if only a single room) with evidence of compliance on all manner of things such as fire safety, licensing, planning permission, electrical and gas safety, approval of mortgage company/freehold owners etc etc.   Details will follow.  

 

Likely to be coming in during Summer 2024 (depending on politics etc in what is a general election year etc). 

 

Thoughts?
