Are your tenants growing cannabis in your property? The Home Office has launched a Crimestoppers’ campaign aimed at raising awareness among letting agents and landlords of the potential for their properties to be used for commercial cannabis. A new booklet has been published as part of the campaign, giving guidance on how to spot the signs of commercial cannabis cultivation, how to report it, and the steps that can be taken to help protect themselves and their properties. Commercial cannabis cultivation is often association with human trafficking and money laundering, as well as with serious house fires. Crimestoppers director of operations Roger Critchell said: “This is a crime that can lead to much more serious incidents, which is why we feel it’s important to reinforce our appeal for information from the public. The campaign is being supported by ARLA, NALS, the NLA and RLA. The booklet can be found here: crimestoppers-uk.org/scratchandsniff Story content from propertyindustryeye
