Landlords, property investors and property professionals across the UK are being called to prepare for significant reforms in the Private Rental Sector (PRS), with major legislative and technological changes on the horizon. From the Renters’ Rights Bill to Making Tax Digital and the rise of PropTech, the PRS is facing a transformative period that demands awareness, education, and action.
To help property professionals stay ahead and informed, the National Landlord Investment Show is hosting a Summer Spectacular Show, taking place on 9th July at Old Billingsgate, London. This one-day event, which is set to be the organisers' biggest and most dynamic show to date, will offer free expert-led education and a hub to provide property professionals with the education, support, and community needed to prepare for the sector's future. The event is free to attend, with free registration required to secure a spot.
With over 11 million people living in PRS accommodation in the UK, the sector’s evolution towards greater professionalism is more critical than ever. The show will feature more than 50 seminars, five expert panel debates, and a dedicated Landlord & Property Education Hub, offering practical guidance on compliance, finance, investment strategies, insurance, property management, strategies for digital transformation, tax planning, and much more.
