This housing advice booklet gives information about the rights you have if you rent your home. It outlines landlords' responsibilities and explains what you can do if you're having trouble getting them to carry out the work that's needed.
It does not cover the rights you have if you rent your home under a business tenancy or an agricultural tenancy. If you have one of these types of tenancy and are having problems, use our advice services directory to find a local adviser who can help.
