Stefanov continued; “The recent NRA checks have shown that we know what we are doing and the renting branch has started to self-discipline - people have started to say: ‘hey, they will find out, let’s pay and sleep peacefully.”

Stefanov concluded by praising the fact that young families are now entitled to tax relief on mortgage loans and called for more families to take advantage of the scheme – with only 1 500 having signed up for the exemptions.
