Estate agent hosts free webinar on rental law reforms

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 18 Oct, 06:08 · Archive

Estate agent Parkers Properties is hosting a free online webinar for landlords on 16 November from 6pm to 7.30pm to help them understand major changes in rental law brought in by the Renters' Rights Act, which came into force on 1 May.

The session will focus on the impact of the sweeping reforms to the private rental sector. It will include a presentation and a Q&A session. Parkers has also launched a two-minute Landlord Quiz to help landlords assess their understanding of the new regulations and potential compliance risks.

Brendan Kay, managing director of Parkers, said: 'The Renters' Rights legislation has fundamentally changed how landlords operate. Landlords can't assume that the old ways of doing things remain the same. The reality is that the levels of compliance that are required and the penalties for getting it wrong are so much greater.'

Mr Kay said the webinar would provide 'a practical, jargon-free update on what the new rules mean in the real world, what we have learned during the first six months and what landlords need to prepare for next'. Topics will include mistakes landlords need to avoid, how to increase rents correctly, the upcoming Private Rented Sector Database and the current state of the West Oxfordshire rental market.
