It was already a difficult time for many people economically in the fallout of a pandemic, global conflicts and the ensuing energy price rises before the UK government panicked the market with its frequent changing of the premiership. Many people are feeling the pinch, no matter their income level, and landlords are not immune to […]
The private rental sector is beginning to buckle, as an increasing number of landlords are opting to sell up and leave the sector. Sky News reported that the number of landlords selling their properties has risen by 13% over the past four months, driven out by increasing costs and punitive legislation. Whilst landlords leaving the […]
Decorating can be a nightmare at the best of times. If you’re a homeowner, you’ll be no stranger to figuring out what to do with a room full of furniture and spending twice the time prepping surfaces than actually painting them. If you’re a landlord, it’s tempting to wait until your properties are empty before […]
There is no doubt that buy-to-let properties are one of the most popular ways to invest money. Whether it is carried out by an individual (or couple) looking for a sensible way to get a return on their money, or a company buying up a portfolio of properties to rent out – this is a […]
As the skies darken and the cold winter months begin to take hold, the outlook for landlords looks set to get ever bleaker. On the 17th of November, the government announced its Autumn Statement, with the new Chancellor of the Exchequer – Jeremy Hunt – opting to take a decidedly different path to his predecessor’s […]

Properties in the United Kingdom can be let either furnished or unfurnished. As with all areas of property investment and being a landlord, there are pros and cons to both options and the route you choose to pursue will depend on the characteristics of your property, how actively you intend to manage the property, and […]
The rental property market in the UK has not only grown exponentially in size over the past years, but it has also recently become a fast-moving sector where properties are snapped up as soon as they are released onto the market. With demand for rental flats and houses outstripping supply, would-be renters are fully aware […]
With prices across the board rising faster than they have for decades, many of us are watching the pennies more carefully, tightening our belts, and looking for ways to cut costs. That includes the UK’s 2.6m private landlords, many of whom can’t put up the rent they charge because tenant’s wages aren’t increasing anywhere near […]

Large businesses and organisations have been able to streamline their operations by implementing technology into their workflows and structure for many years. Once seen as a huge investment to overhaul archaic systems, most modern businesses now begin life as tech-savvy enterprises. Whether that’s using software to manage their workflows and finances or to maintain contact […]
Some might argue that it is fair to say that we landlords are not a publicly popular cast. Despite our cohorts being filled with, for the most part, people seeking to better their lives and the lives of their families, we do suffer a public image problem. In part, this is due to an extremely […]
