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 (2021, Qtr 3) - Taxation, mediation and policy innovation
The Quarter 3 survey focuses on issues around taxation, mediation and potential policy innovations that could improve the private rented sector. The study reports on sources of business advice, how landlords pay tax and their current readiness for Making Tax Digital. The report also provides an overview of the NRLA's recent "Student Landlord" collaboration with the DfE.
In Focus (2021 Qtr 2): Licensing & regulation
The quarter 2 survey looked at landlords' recent experience of licensing. Possible policy innovations are also tested. There is support for regulatory regimes among landlords IF an impact can be demonstrated - this is something which both local authorities and national initiatives (Rent Smart Wales) have failed to do. This In Focus also reports on a collaboration with Battersea Dogs' Home.

Quarter 3 In Focus: Landlords & Taxation
This In Focus report considers the views of landlords on a range of taxation topics. Landlords' likely response to tax changes sends the Chancellor of the Exchequer a message to think through tax changes and reforms. The impact of changes on the PRS may not be as forecasters predict.
