Propertymark's Head of Policy Tim Douglas says the majority of ARLA members are unhappy with the Bill, currently waiting for its Third Reading in Parliament.

Anthony Mangnall has launched amendments to the Renters (Reform) Bill, backed by NRLA, to make it more workable for landlords and agents.

Many landlords faced the challenge of higher buy-to-let mortgage rates in 2023, contributing to rising rents for tenants – expected to increase again.

LRG's lettings boss Allison Thompson says a Bill would recognise landlords' essential role in preventing homelessness and provide necessary safeguards.

PayProp UK boss Neil Cobbold says that the government’s flagship legislation for the private rented sector remains in limbo.

The All-Party Parliamentary Group for the Private Rented Sector says steps need to be taken to address the actions of rogue and criminal landlords.

Goodlord’s William Reeve says that the lettings industry is already in the eye of the storm and policy makers have to stop kicking the can down the road.

The energy supplier also wants an amendment to the Renters (Reform) Bill so landlords cannot reasonably refuse smart meter installation.
