Private landlords

We are committed to providing private landlords and agents with quality information to help then to operate successful businesses now and into the future.

Our aim is to improve conditions in the private sector and to prevent homelessness, it is therefore essential that we support and encourage responsible renting.

In partnership with the other three local authorities in the West of England area, we've put together a website full of resources for landlords. You can browse our online landlord manual, take the landlord proficiency test and access many other resources.
