Property Reporter says that £82.7 billion worth of UK property is being let to criminals. That’s 5% of current housing stock.
Tenant fraud is a growing problem in the rental industry, and one of the most common forms of fraud is the submission of fraudulent documents including fake IDs, payslips, utility bills and bank statements.
Many fraudulent documents are well-crafted and can easily pass as legitimate, making it difficult for landlords, property managers and even the most experienced referencing agency to identify them.
