Rachel Reeves says she's lifting half a million children out of poverty. Hang on a minute-How's she doing that then? She's just put an extra 2% on rental income. Where does a Landlady get her rent from? What is happening to that rent now? @Alison_McGovern linkedin.com/posts/mick-rob…

£6 million a year @MyNottingham spend on B&B's for the homeless. that could build 60 houses a year. Is anyone working this out and doing joined up thinking? @NadiaWhittomeMP Whittome, u NEVER mention this has escalated since Selective Licensing linkedin.com/posts/mick-rob…

When will the uninformed public realise it's Govt & Council's that are mostly responsible for the high rents tenants face today. Give an hour on TV to educate people & tenants will realise the higher costs are mostly due to Govt & Council policies. thenegotiator.co.uk/news/rental-ma…

@_CommonTreasury @BeadleBen Yes lots. Your figures are corrwct. Some of em have 8% in their head. Others like the area. Others looking long term.

@MickRobertsBoss @BeadleBen Hi Mick, have you been approached by any landlords who are buying on your patch? If so, what sort of yield are they after? Since s24 and the end of cheap rates, I cannot see it working anywhere for less than 7 or 8% gross yield

Can’t say I'm surprised that unlawful renting of short-term lets is on the rise. Govt is absolutely right to want to bring these properties into the #PRS - but to do that, you need carrot and not stick. The last govt made short term lets attractive by taxing #PRS homes more harshly - wrong move. I know the tax system will be changed to reverse this - but to bring these homes back into PRS use, we should be incentivising long term #renting through the tax system - so responsible letting is a positive choice for investors, not the least worst option. It’s why the #rentersrights bill must be amended too, to give #housing providers confidence to stay in the market, get their homes back when they have a valid reason, in a short time frame. With 12 #tenants chasing every home, it’s bold pro growth tax measures that keep homes in the rented sector that are needed, to encourage new homes to be built and acquired. Its steps like this that will solve the housing crisis and increase supply. Not over regulation. bbc.com/news/articles/…

@BeadleBen 2/2 No joined up thinking the colossal homelessness and costs these cause. Ooh let's ban pet deposits. We not taking pets then. Let's ban not taking Benefit tenants. We'll ban em on affordability then and just waste their time. 176 new rules since 2015 all hurting good tenants

So @UKLabour recognises bureaucracy increases cost, blocks new housing. We are Housing Providers. Tenants pay more for increased regulations. So why does Labour Party wish to block new housing for desperate tenants? More regs less houses @katefaulkner Faulkner OBE @BeadleBen

My tenants house has got rats coming through (excuse her grammar) cause @MyNottingham house next door not being acted upon by Council. So Priv Landlords pay for Sel Licensing, meanwhile Council pay zero and do zero and their houses cause problems for those that pay for Licensing.

I see nothing here different to what @LabourParty @Conservatives & @MyNottingham Council & Councils r doing to Landlords. How can you have a good non draughty house with EPC D, now boiler, doors, windows, kitchen, then @Ed_Miliband comes in & says changeit bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Why Ed Miliband @ng_labour, are you always trying to increase Private tenants rents? By wanting EPC C. What if the tenant was paying cheap rent say £200pm below normal & Landlord got to spend £6000-What do you think is going to happen to that rent? @BeadleBen @katefaulkner

Does @ACORNunion really think this is helping their tenants get houses off Priv Landlords? "We have a right to a home.” What do u think is gonna happen when that Landlord/Landlady is about to house you & you say Ooh by the way, you never getting this back! thenegotiator.co.uk/news/regulatio…

Jeremy Corbyn making people homeless every time he talks Is it my job to house them then? At a price Corbyn chooses? Why don't Corbyn come buy all my houses with tenants, I'll tell him the rent he can charge Corbyn slams landlords & demands rent controls thenegotiator.co.uk/news/regulatio…

Paul McCartney: We're the people, you're the government! U supposed to protect us. If @Shelter @genrentuk Govt Councils keep hammering the Landlord. Where is the Landlords protection? U want Sec21 banned, Y we give u house. Protect us or u won't have us. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Everything they call for, makes it worse for the next tenants. And more expensive. Sounds great if the person giving was a charity and had a magic money tree. Mr Landlord, you will withdraw your investment and house me for £3000 less pa than your investment. Aah right ok then

@AFCLjB @BeadleBen They not getting it are they

@MickRobertsBoss @BeadleBen Had to sell the inherited home we'd lived in for 6 yrs over a disputed care home debt. Lost the case in court. Our credit was shot,only one was working at the time but we were cash rich. Paid 6 months upfront to secure rental. We'd be homeless if this bill had been in then.

The days of landlords accommodating renters with: ✅ CCJs ✅ bad or no credit record ✅no proof of income or none at all ✅temporary employment contracts or in probationary periods ✅ no uk guarantor (such as students, especially overseas) Will soon be over. There - fixed your tweet, Minister. Luckily there’s plenty of social housing to go round 🫤

@PaulShamplina @TalkTV @iancollinsuk Everything they call for, makes it worse for the next tenants. And more expensive. Sounds great if the person giving was a charity and had a magic money tree. Mr Landlord, you will withdraw your investment and house me for £3000 less pa than your investment. Aah right ok then

Just going on @TalkTV with @iancollinsuk talking the banning of Rent in Advance and EPC upgrades for landlords.

@BeadleBen They banned Landlord taking an extra £100 for a pet. What did Landlord do? Stopped taking pets. They said u must take Benefit tenants. What did Landlord do? More refused. When will they come and ask the Landlord What can we do for u so u help us out and take our people?

They not right are they. I'm biggest Private Housing Provider in Nottingham to Benefit tenants over 28 years and I'm no longer taking Benefit tenants and selling most my houses next 2 years. I used to take ANYONE. U r taking money out bank Landlord and housing us for a loss. OK.

Please share this to all Landlords. Anyone affected by LessTax 4 Landlords SDLT taxes coming? We can save 150,000 tenants from homeless LT4LWhatsAppGroup@gmail.com photos.app.goo.gl/1SNRKFGgsxxTy2…
