Dear Property118 Team, Thank you for conducting and publishing the Q3 2026 Landlord Sentiment Survey. For years, mainstream trade bodies like the NRLA have tiptoed around the reality with timid, selective questions designed to serve their own corporate growth. While...

I sometimes wonder whose reputation the NRLA is supposed to defend. It repeatedly uses expressions such as "rogue landlords" and "criminal landlords", even though the association itself acknowledges that wrongdoing concerns a minority. Imagine if the principal representative body for...

The chief executive of a social housing provider can earn around £200,000 a year, while the actual financial risk is borne by the organisation rather than personally by the chief executive. By contrast, a small private landlord may invest hundreds...

I have not reached that point yet. But depends the reason. For non payment I ve been told that is simple but you can insure the rent or pay a lawyer. NRLA does offer that facility and can inform you...
We need to speak plainly. What is happening right now is not just unfair — it is dangerous. The people writing the laws that govern our sector are not following those laws themselves, and the consequences for us, and for...

I totally agree with you as most of us are in a similar situation. It is very hurting to read the usual comments made by those who created this KNIGHTMARE. "LANDLORDS CASHING IN"
Who was actually consulted? Based on publicly available parliamentary records, committee minutes, and stakeholder submissions, the government primarily consulted: • Large institutional investors (e.g., BlackRock, Legal & General, Grainger) • Housing charities (Shelter, Crisis) • Tenant advocacy groups • Local...
The un-elected baroness who almost passed the law single handed says now that they did not take into account the landlord losses as the result of the biggest change in law that in the last 10 years that has been...

“Three strikes and you’re out.” For many people, that phrase sums up how trust should work in public life — and Angela’s case raises serious questions. Despite her salary rising from around £30,000 to roughly £160,000 after becoming an MP,...
In my view, the policies being promoted by Angela Rayner treat all landlords as if they are criminals, without recognising the difference between responsible landlords and the tiny minority 2% who behave badly. This approach creates serious instability in the...
It sounds great to have Angela Rayner back after lost her post and the Deputy head of the government after her dismissal for trying to deceive the HMRC of £40.000. Just a reminder, she is the one that was keeping...
