What does the new prime minister have in store for the rental market in 2023?

Letting industry experts will come together today at 10am to discuss how landlords will fare against a backdrop of higher interest rates, and how tenant behaviour is likely to change as the economy contracts.

Property Academy founder, Peter Knight, and letting director at Martyn Gerrard, Greg Tsuman, will both take part in a Goodlord hosted webinar this morning, which will also include the firm's CEO, William Reeve, and director of insurance, Oli Sherlock.

The speakers will discuss a wide range of issues, including what legislative and regulatory changes are on track for 2023, including the possibility of new regional rent freezes, the roll-out of Welsh reforms, the dawn of Making Tax Digital, and whether we will see the Rental Reform Bill finally pass into law.

There will also be a live Q&A with the agents and landlords who attend.

Knight commented: "After a rollercoaster three years, it seems that 2023 will bring no respite for the industry. Tenant demand looks set to remain high, with new challenges to navigate also coming thick and fast. Ensuring businesses are prepared and operating as efficiently as possible will be essential. I'm hoping that this webinar will be a great opportunity to explore these areas and help people think through what they should be prioritising come January."

Reeve added: "Looking ahead to next year, there is plenty for business leaders in our sector to get their heads around. We will be contending with a fragile economy, reams of new legislation, and a shaky political backdrop. It's certainly going to be a big year. I'm looking forward to discussing predictions and insights with this talented panel."
