Your NRLA conference in pictures
More than eight hundred landlords, agents and property professionals attended the NRLA’s sell-out national landlord conference this week.
Housing Secretary Michael Gove addressed a packed auditorium at the event, answering landlord questions via livestream just a day after the Renters (Reform) Bill had its second reading.
Chair of the cross-party Housing Select Committee, Labour MP Clive Betts MP also addressed delegates at the October 24, along with industry experts including TV presenter and property investor Martin Roberts; Richard Donnell, Executive Director of Zoopla; Richard Rowntree, Managing Director of Paragon Bank; David Smith, Partner at JMW Solicitors and NRLA Legal Counsel and housing commentator Kate Faulkner.
The day-long conference, at the National Conference Centre in Birmingham was presented by TV presenter and journalist Clive Myrie, and included a packed programme of presentations, robust panel discussions, Q&A sessions as well as a bustling exhibition hall packed with 30 trade stands offering exclusive offers and discounts to members.
The 2023 conference came on the back of a hugely successful 2022 event – the NRLA’s first – which scooped silver in the Best Association Event category of this year’s Conference & Events Awards.
