Letting agent fined £10k over dangerous floor: A letting agent has been fined thousands of pounds after it failed to act when a tenant's bathroom floor came close to collapsing

A letting agent has been fined thousands of pounds after it failed to act when a tenant's bathroom floor came close to collapsing.

Bradford-based Blackhorse Property Holdings Ltd was found to have allowed tenants to live in "dangerous conditions" which could have caused them harm, according to the city council.

As result the firm breached the Housing Act 2004, and at Bradford Magistrates' Court on 13 August it was fined £10,000.
