The whole premise of the renter’s union argument is false. An open market rent is the ultimate in pure reason. With a limited supply, the people who pay most will get the property. But if a landlord asks too much...

Yet again - the government is trying to make landlords responsible for tenant actions. It is Ludicrous. And pathetic. If a tenant is a criminal - prosecute pursue and punish THEM. Not the landlord who has done nothing wrong. And...

What a total idiot. Give us back section 21. Simple

Reply to the comment left by Landlord Phil at 14/10/2026 - 13:41Do you know where else in the world they tax landlords on every property - not on the income? CUBA!!! And what a great thriving successful economy they have!

Absolutely agree with the suggestions: Allow rent in advance Bring back section 21 with a compensation of 2 months rent to the tenant if a landlord uses it. That seems very fair. Allow bidding for properties – because it is...

Reply to the comment left by Jesus Diaz at 09/10/2026 - 07:01So NRLA doesn’t follow their own members wishes? What the hell is the point of them? Time for landlords to abandon NRLA and start a collective union that will...

Couldn’t agree more. Well said a propertyMark. Ban the selective licensing schemes outright and reduce the annual database fee to match Scotland and Wales.

Yes of course it’s a total rip off. But Why hasn’t the NRLA done anything to stop it before ? Why haven’t they managed to be heard? Their comments are far too mild. come far too late and don’t reach...

We need a landlord campaign group that can shout as loudly as ‘Generations Rent’. By the way - who are they funded by? They seem to have a huge full-time team of lobbyists.

The six months time limit is ridiculous. A friend just had 3 consecutive buyers fall through on a house sale - that has meant it took over 18 months to sell. And this is not unusual.

If all the costs Landlords have to pay are also capped then fair enough. But as long as they keep rising then so will rents! I don’t raise rents to make more income - I raise it to try to...

Please could someone explain To me what the enormous sum of money the government will get EACH year from this database is going to be used for? Millions of properties = millions and millions of pounds. I pay Apple less...

Reply to the comment left by Reluctant Landlord at 01/10/2026 - 09:26Are the insurers still allowed to ask the questions though? I bet they are. And that means they will price their insurance accordingly! A landlord will be asked to...

Let’s remember that Insurance companies routinely discriminate and the government allows that! They ask higher premiums if a tenant is on benefits or self-employed etc. And who would the ‘registered providers’ of verification be? Yet another ‘service’ provider that can...

Never ever have a lawyer as a tenant. Ever.

I had a tenant who told me he’d checked and found out I didn’t have a mortgage and then started threatening me and trying to extort money. He made a false claim to the council saying I had failed to...

Couldn’t agree more. Ineffective, badly designed and just a money grabbing exercise for the councils. In my area I had two inspections for my selective licence applications. Neither inspector seemed to have any clue what they were doing or even...

This is appalling - why should we be exposed to such risks? Truly terrifying. Identity fraud is constantly increasing and the government imposes complex legislation supposedly designed to protect data privacy and then does this! Making all landlords sitting targets....

The fact that information on comparable achieved rents is not available either to landlords or tribunals makes a mockery of the whole process. Whoever devised this wants us all to live in a Kafka nightmare. The only potential source for...
