Landlord who put residents at risk banned
The Journal
|January 22, 2026
A ROGUE landlord who repeatedly failed to meet basic housing standards and put the health and wellbeing of residents at risk has been served a 10-year banning order.
-
Gateshead Council secured the landmark victory in its efforts to protect tenants.
On January 9, the First-Tier Tribunal (Residential Property) in Manchester granted the council's application to ban Mr Anthony Hall, of Ravensworth Road, Birtley, from letting residential properties, carrying out letting agency work, and undertaking property management work for a period of 10 years.
A banning order is a legal sanction under the Housing and Planning Act 2016. It prevents an individual from being a landlord or managing rented homes for a specified period. Anyone who breaches a banning order commits a further criminal offence.
The council applied for the banning order following a long history of noncompliance.
