How much does it cost to become an accredited landlord?
DASH Landlord Accreditation is a paid for service.
The cost to join DASH Landlord Accreditation depends on which Local Authority your property/ies are based in.

The fee payable is for the application, so it is important to ensure that you are committed to completing the DASH accreditation process. DASH fees are non-refundable - Refunds cannot be given more than 48 hours after the application has been received by DASH.
When you become accredited with DASH you will qualify to carry the ‘Nottingham Standard’ or DASH accreditation.
The Nottingham Standard is a local scheme in the city which may attracts certain benefits and discounting. Nottingham City Council expects that landlords should have applied for and obtained the accreditation in order to benefit from any reduced licensing fees.
