Episode 28 - Anti-social behaviour and investment

In this edition of Listen Up Landlords presenters NRLA Chief Executive Ben Beadle (@BeadleBen) and Richard Blanco (@richardblanco_)  examine the recent Government announcements on anti-social behaviour and look at the latest advice when it comes to investing in property in turbulent economic times. Ben and Richard talk to landlord Alan Deeley, who used a Section 21 notice to regain possession of his property after suffering at the hands of anti-social tenants. With Section 21 to be abolished by Government as part of its rental reform plans, they ask whether new powers will go far enough to support landlords. They are joined by Landlord Action’s Paul Shamplina (@paulshamplina)of TV's ‘Nightmare Tenants, Slum Landlords’ who shares his thoughts on the potential consequences of Government proposals. Catherine Behdad, of the NRLA advice team, looks at the issues concerning landlords calling our support line this month, with property developer and NRLA trainer Henry Davis joining the show to talk about investment. Henry, who delivers the NRLA’s four investment courses shares his top tips when it comes to investing in property during challenging economic times.
