Private landlord fined for not properly licensing rented property in Burnley
A private landlord has been ordered to pay more than £1,000 by magistrates for failing to properly licence a rented property.

Since founding RPC Letting (one of Burnley's leading Property Management companies) I have always wanted to make things better in my hometown of Burnley. Being born and raised in this town makes you forget all the things we have here that we take for granted. Our parks and surrounding greenspaces and our local heritage like Townley Hall, Weavers Triangle and Pendle Hill. We have a great nightlife and a variety of places to eat around our town. This is why I invested my time and energy into Burnley. 
Our Property Management business has gone from strength to strength and my continuous love for Burnley pushed me to find Property Investor and Landlord to also invest in Burnley.
Growing up in Burnley's not so affluent area gave me insight to the plight of families (some of whom I classed as friends as children). It has been hard for me to see people struggle in our towns other areas too and our team at RPC Letting Agents Burnley did our best to step up to issues caused by the pandemic by helping local people with food parcels and financial donations. Over the years we have also sponsored sports teams and events to keep our towns youths active and still continue to support them.

Last week Mayor and Lord Wajid Khan honoured our efforts with the Mayors Medal. Its great to receive a Mayors medal for my contributions and efforts during these tough times. I am truly humbled by the award I received and am grateful to have been in a position where I was able to assist the people of my town. I want to thank everyone who has been apart of our journey and look forward to a more prosperous future invite more landlord to join us as property management clients to add to growing portfolio.

We often report local authorities criticising the standards of letting agents and landlords - now here's a quite different story.

Letting agents and landlords have been praised by Burnley council for their professional approach to looking after their properties and tenants.

Mujeeb Rehman, of RPC Lettings, has also become the first landlord to achieve the gold standard as part of the council's Good Landlord and Agent Scheme, or GLAS.

The agent may require you to arrange an appointment before visiting the premises.

Following the decision by the Burnley MP to vote against providing meals for vulnerable Burnley children this half term, the people of this town have decided they will do it themselves.

RPC Lettings have donated £1000 towards this cause and will also be collecting food to donate to food banks.
