What are Safety Certificate Renewals?

Elmbank Street, Glasgow

Safety certificate renewals are a necessary step in maintaining the safety and integrity of your property in Glasgow.

These renewals ensure that all structural, electrical, and other safety features of your property are up to date and meet all regulatory requirements.

What is the process?

The process for safety certificate renewals can vary depending on the type of property you own and who is managing it.

Typically, property owners will work with a property management company to coordinate these renewals and ensure that everything is done in a timely and effective manner.

If you are responsible for safety certificate renewals on your own property, you will need to have your property inspected by an accredited engineer who can verify that everything is up to standard and in good condition.

Depending on the specification of your property, this will involve a thorough inspection of electrical, plumbing, heating and other systems.

You will also need to ensure that any repairs or upgrades that are required are completed before your renewal is due.

Safety Certificate Renewal Inspections

At the heart of safety certificate renewals lies a thorough inspection of your property by qualified professionals.

During this inspection, engineers will evaluate the condition of your property’s electrical and plumbing systems, as well as the safety of other key features such as portable appliances.

If any issues are identified during this inspection, they will be noted on your safety certificate and you will be expected to address them in order to renew your certificate.

Your investment is only as good as your letting agent.

Glasgow rental property has proven to be a great investment over the years. However, all investments have risk and not all Glasgow letting agents are equal. My job at Yates Hellier is to ensure that my client’s investments produce consistent results.

FAQs

What are the rental market yields in Glasgow?

This is dependent on the purchase price, area, your aversion to risk, and also your future intentions with the property. You could be a professional landlord who is building a large portfolio, and yield is your main driver.  You’re retired and intend to downsize your family home in a few years, and buy a high end property in the West End of Glasgow, renting it out in the interim.  Generally, rental yields can vary from roughly 5% to 10%, depending on the above. Agents often sell a property based on gross rental yield, but how do you work this out? Monthly rent multiplied by 12 Months (£1500 x 12) = £18,000 Divide Annual Rental income by Purchase Price (£18,000/£300,000) = 6%

My flat doesn’t have cladding. Do I still need an EWS1 form to sell?

It is very likely that if your building is over 6 storeys, yes, you will need an EWS1 form. Examples wall systems deemed as cladding: Render Wood ACM (Aluminum Composite Material) HPL (High Pressure Laminate) Brick Slips (Faux Brick look) Metal cladding (ACM, zinc, ) Terracotta tile Balconies are also included
