  • Avoiding Compliance Pitfalls: With penalties reaching up to £40,000, we’ll highlight the most common mistakes landlords are likely to make – and how to prevent them.

  • Preparing for the New Ombudsman & Tenant Rights: Every landlord will need to register and adjust how they communicate with tenants to avoid disputes. We’ll explain what records you need to keep and how to protect yourself.
