- Section 10 of Schedule 1 of the Housing Act 1988 provides that the landlord is considered to be a resident landlord if the tenancy was granted by an individual who, at the time when the tenancy was granted, occupied as his only or principal home another dwelling-house which also forms part of the flat or part of the building. The landlord does not need to share any accommodation with the occupier to qualify for resident landlord status. {Resident Landlord? – Things to consider before granting or agreeing to a tenancy – Jungle Property Blog}
