What do I do if the property needs repairs?

It's really important to let either managing agent or the landlord know what repairs are required on your rented property as soon as possible. Don't leave them for a few weeks, because a small leak at the property might turn into a very large problem a few weeks later. It will be clear in your tenancy agreement who you should contact about repairs to the property, whether that be the landlord directly or indeed the managing agent.
