Episode 40: Renters (Reform) amendments and permitted development rights

In this episode of Listen Up Landlords – recorded before last week's rental reform debate in the Commons – NRLA CEO Ben Beadle (@BeadleBen)  and Richard Blanco (@richardblanco_)  discuss important amendments to the Renters Reform Bill. Ben and Richard are joined by HMO landlord and podcaster Andy Graham, and consumer champion and financial journalist Sarah Davidson, who discuss how the proposed changes will affect landlords and tenants. We also hear from John Blackwood, Chief Executive of the Scottish Association of Landlords (SAL), who discusses how legislation change in Scotland has affected the rental market north of the border and the impact that has had on supply. From the NRLA's landlord support team, Danny McKeown-Henshall joins the team to outline the hot topics when it comes to the phonelines, and planning specialist Alison Broderick discusses the latest Government consultation on permitted development rights.
