With 24% of landlords telling Pegasus research for the NRLA that they sold properties in 2025 and only 5% purchasing, Richard Blanco will take a look at the hard facts to see how the private rented sector is evolving. 

What regulatory and economic hurdles might be driving landlords out of the business - the Renters Rights Act and energy efficiency could be high on the list.  

Richard will run through a checklist for those choosing to exit.

There are still big pressures on the supply of rental properties and 4.5 million households will still need to rent, won't they? 

So what will the opportunities be for landlords wanting to stay or expand. 

How would you need to transition your business to thrive in the 2030s?
