Property magazine: Have you changed you approach to lettings? Tell us more
NRLA members’ magazine Property wants to hear your stories.
It’s been a tough few years in the industry, due to a perfect storm of rising interest rates, the cost-of-living crisis and looming legislation change, not to mention the legacy of the Covid-19 pandemic.
As a result, we’ve spoken to a number of landlords who are planning to change their approach to the lettings business in order to adapt.
Some have turned their backs on older solid brick homes to purchase new build properties as a result of the changes to minimum EPC ratings; new builds being constructed with energy efficiency in mind.
Others are branching out from family homes and flats to purchase HMOs, which, despite being more demanding in terms of management, typically offer better returns.
Ahead of the winter edition of Property we are asking whether you have made changes to the way in which you operate to adapt to the current financial climate or future legislation change?
If so, we’d love to hear more about your experiences as part of an extended feature on the issue.
Please email Property editor [email protected] if you would be interested in taking part. You must be willing to speak to a reporter and be pictured to take part.
