Quarterly Reports
Each quarter the NRLA invites members to share with us their views and opinions on a range of topics, issues and Government policies which affect their ability to be a good landlord.
The results are published and build into a detailed picture of the views and opinions of landlords. These reports form the evidence base from which the NRLA makes the landlord case to both local and national Governments.
In Focus (2023 Qtr 3): Tax and taxation
The Quarter 3 In Focus consultation received responses from over 800 landlord members of the NRLA. It reflects on landlord views of tax issues such as potential reforms to Capital Gains Tax and Business Asset Rollover Relief. PLUS: What do landlords think of the prospect of a property portal? How confident are landlords in navigating the road to achieve any upward revisions to EPC ratings?
In Focus (2023 Qtr 2): Landlords, ASB & rent controls
Over 1,100 landlords participated in this consultation which focused on the prospect of regulatory change. How proposals will change the PRS in respect of anti-social behavour in England and rent controls in Wales. In England landlords can largely live with Section 21 reform IF new mechanisms give landlords confidence to continue. In Wales, rent controls would almost certainly mean more tenants facing annual rent increases.
In Focus (2023 Qtr 1): The PRS, property markets and the economy
This new look In Focus reports on the views and experiences of over 1,200 landlords across England & Wales. The consultation reflects on landlord confidence as well as taking a closer look at Universal Credit.

The results of this consultation challenges current policy thinking in the PRS.
In Focus (2022, Qtr 3): Economic Influences and LGBTQ+ issues
