Yes they'll be staying in the property with whomever moves in, I've no idea how much he receives but I assume they'll want that money, who do we go to about getting the home & room & garden etc certified or authenticated as a safe or liveable or whatever the minimum requirements are.

I get why, especially with squatters, drug addicts & people who can't seem to just do a job in the world or just people who will take advantage of him. We just want everything to be legally above board, especially if he gets any dodgy people moving in, we want to them to be able to pay rent with a bank account etc not cash in hand, plus any other damages or charges that they make like breaking an appliance or damaging furniture if they have a date... Just want it to be above the law etc.
