Didn't the Rep. of Ireland do away with their version of section 24 around 2009? There must be case study analysis of LL behaviour then. I believe they have now reversed section 24 i.e 10 years later where you get...

RICS warns rental supply is still falling

12th March 2026, 4 weeks ago

The whole scheme is a duffer. I have Victorian properties so no chance of getting C without harming the the fabric of the building. Internal insulation on walls will not allow the property to 'breath' and cause damp and mould...

I would be more worried if you are in a selective licence area. As the council clipboarder inspectors will be inspect properties looking for penalty raising income and now the fines are crippling for any landlord so that is my...

For smaller LLs like me it is about timing as the mortgages and interest cuts kick in before this May and the market will be more in buying mode for FTB then I will sell before RRA comes in. So...

Once legislation is on statute books it is rarely taken off asap. I.e. It takes parliamentary time to unwind it. Plus Lords will have their say especially if it is not in manifesto. So don't bank on law changes via...

We have to factor in that there will be a change of PM mid year so we have to expect a 'SOFT LEFT' PM if there was anyone as most will be HARD LEFT on LLs/PRS anyway- Raynor/Burnham. I am...

Beadle is now being frank and honest about the RRA but no point as its law. He should have been shouting this during RRB. Government will just ignore it until change of the government in 3 years time as the...

Unfortunately the next government in 3.5 years time won't be able to undue all the bad legislation and greenlight boroughwide selective licencing that will damage/crash PRS in time. So the decision is not about-well things are going to turn a...

Agree it is scare tactics but they will easily 'scare' tenants to let them in. So tenant's right peaceful quiet enjoyment right has now been eroded.

Section 13 can be issued every 12months not every 22 months but unfortunately the Labour government has baked in the rent cap via the back door. David Smith housing lawyer calls it rent suppression. Only way round it is to...
