Private rented property complaints

We aim to ensure that landlords who provide rented accommodation in the city supply a good quality service to their tenants.

If you are experiencing issues with your private landlord or letting agent that you have been unable to resolve by contacting them directly you can use this form to contact us.

If your landlord has threatened you with homelessness or you need support to prevent you becoming homeless (for example the affordability of the property you currently live in) then please contact our Housing Advice team, - we may be able to help even if notice has not been served
