Work collaboratively with the owners and managers of licensable HMOs to ensure that their properties are licensed, well managed, maintained in a good condition, meet the amenity standards and comply with the HMO Management Regulations.

Respond promptly, within agreed timescales, to complaints about serious disrepair and housing-related nuisance in the private sector and, through investigation, evaluate risks and hazards and determine the nature, cause, urgency and remedy of the problems.

Maintain professional competence and keep abreast of developments in relation to private sector housing enforcement (including the introduction of civil penalties and rent repayment orders) and the relevant legislation through research and reading, attendance of courses and briefings, and the use of established networks
