Being a landlord in 2024 is as challenging as it has ever been! As industry professionals, qualified members of ARLA and people who work in the property sector daily, we keep a very close eye on the news, legal updates and the housing market and there are plenty of challenges to read about!
Firstly, we have financial challenges with mortgage rates reaching new highs and unfavourable taxation laws for landlords. And yet, so many landlords aren’t charging enough rent to even nearly cover the extra costs involved nowadays!
The Renting Homes (Wales) act has been the biggest shake-up to the private rented sector we've ever seen. Changes have included 6 month no blame notices, new terminology including occupation contracts, written statements, contract holders.
And of course, with increased legislative changes, comes increased attention from local authorities on looking for non-compliant landlords to prosecute. Fines are getting bigger, the reasons for prosecutions are getting smaller, and all landlords need to take note of the changes happening in councils across the UK, fast to avoid unknowingly falling foul of the law and being hit with penalties!
Even tenancy management is getting tougher with rent arrears at a higher rate, evictions and possession claims increasing and the legal process a minefield for a lot of self-managing landlords.
All in all, with the levels of legislation at the highest point ever, so many landlords fall into the trap of non-compliance simply because it is tough to keep on top of the countless things to adhere to and boxes to tick.
But we are on a mission to help educate and prepare our local landlord community…
We love to help and educate landlords, helping you to stay safe and compliant whilst enjoying the benefits of property investing as it should be. This webinar is completely free to attend - We welcome all landlords to take part and ask all your burning questions so you can receive advice directly from the experts!
