Title: landlords obligations regarding appliances
Post by: mkm76 on May 06, 2007, 09:37:27 PM

In a shorthold assured tenancy agreement does the landlord have to suplly the tenant with a cooker?

I'm afraid they no longer need to offer appliances but do need to offer a suitable connection for a cooker if not provided.
This is due to the stringent testing each year which has put many Landlords off.
As far as I am aware they only need to supply a form of hot water.
If you do bring your own cooker make sure you have it connected professionally as it is an offence not too.
