It’s a voluntary scheme that private residential landlords and letting agents are encouraged to join.

The scheme aims to improve the condition and management of privately rented properties in the city. It also provides tenants with a clear indication of who has the Oxford City Council official stamp of approval.

Accredited landlords or agents have agreed to comply with a code of management and the properties that are rented out must meet specified minimum standards.

More details are available on the council website

Accredited properties are identifiable on the Council’s licensing database, please see our earlier post here
