These law changes were never about helping tenants. They were about making life difficult for landlords. Section 21, abolition of fixed term tenancies. Pointless unless you desire to make a landlords business more troublesome to manage.

Landlords all over the counrty need to start demanding proof from the Council that the fees charged reflect the actual cost of the licenses. It seems impossible to me that it can cost hundreds of pounds to license a property....

I cannot understand why more landlords are not signing up.

And it's geniuses like this, that cannot even run a not- for- profit company that like to give us advice about being a landlord. I see that the not for profit company were trying to charge £50k for membership. Really!...

The renters reform bill (a sad act)?

24th June 2024, 2 years ago

You need to remember that left wing organisations like Shelter and Generation Rent are opposed to private landlords no matter how well we treat our tenants. There current strategy is to force control of private property out of the hands...

The NLA have done a poor job. Section 21 was perfectly sensible and it was very useful to help tenants who wanted to move but didn't want to make themselves homeless. Now if they are in private housing but want...

Shelter comes up with a constant string of complaints. I never see them providing any examples of the problem. As far as I am aware you can complain to any council if your property needs repairs and your landlord fails...

Action not words needed from landlords

7th November 2022, 3 years ago

I would love to see this succeed. Landlords seem to be voiceless. The thing I find most frustrating is the NLA. I hear nothing from them.Why are they not insisting on representation on BBC programmes dealing with housing? Why are...

OK Mark Lloyd. I am glad that you are pleased to be one of the founding members. I am still not clear what benefits you think this initiative will bring to Landlords? The last thing we need are more rules...

Who are these PIB people? I recognise a name or two, like Ranjan Bhattacharya. Who do they represent? Are we all invited to join? Will they represent the landlords voice? Landlords seem unheard these days and almost everyone seems to...

Why are we not complaining about this article? It is no good all agreeing that it is incorrect. We need the BBC to acknowledge that. There is no link on the BBC page to make a comment. We need to...

That is an excellent letter. Well done.

You have to be very careful when you consider UC tenants as the State UC benefit system discriminates against private Landlords. The social sector gets to talk to UC staff. Private Landlords do not. You have no methodology to talk...

I would like to understand how the new capital gains tax changes will affect property sales tax considerations. Previously if I had, for instance, two profitable property disposals and two loss making tax disposals they would be aggregated at the...

Ben and the NRL are absolutely and utterly useless. Do I see them on the BBC? No. Do I see them writing articles for the national press? No. Do I see them making any kind of public appearance at all?...
