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.
State of the PRS - 2019, Quarter 1
This State of the PRS report focuses on the rollout of Universal Credit and the difficulties the roll-out has created for landlords. The research, conducted by Edge Hill University makes a number of recommendations for government.
State of the PRS - 2018, Quarter 4
The quarterly landlords' survey undertaken in December 2018 and January 2019 was open to both members of the RLA and the wider landlord community. This survey focused on Finance & Investment. Those who completed the survey on-line were asked their views on a series of topics. Over 2,400 responses were collected.
State of the PRS -2018, Quarter 1
Private landlords are now playing a vital role in providing housing to those on low-incomes and the homeless. Recently, there have been many policy changes that affect the most vulnerable in society and their ability to access a safe and secure home in the PRS.
State of the PRS- 2017, Quarter 4
The energy efficiency standards of the private rented sector have come under greater scrutiny over the past three years, with new regulations coming into force in April 2018. This means that no property can be let for a new tenancy if it is below an E EPC rating. This report builds upon our previous quarterly reports on the private rented sector and provides the opportunity for a deeper understanding of the issues facing private landlords, tenants and the wider sector.
State of the PRS- 2017, Quarter 3
The past two decades have seen the rapid development and growth of the private rented sector in the UK. Between 2001/02 and 2011/12 the sector has doubled in size and now accounts for 20% of households in England (MCHLG, 2018). The Government are implementing major changes to the taxation of the private rented sector, including changes to mortgage interest relief. This report builds upon previous research into the experiences of landlords and their attitudes toward the future.
