The speakers are Marc von Grundherr of Benham & Reeves , Jeremy Davidson , Farnaz Fazaipour, Matt Smith & David Mckee. Leading experts in London's property market.  They discussed the potential impact of the Labour Party's property reforms, particularly the Renters' Rights Bill, on landlords.
Marc von Grundherr argued that the reforms may not be as problematic as feared, as landlords seeking long-term tenants could benefit from more stability. However,  highlighted the issue of evicting problematic tenants, noting the need for a more efficient court system or housing tribunals to handle this.
Jeremy Davidson shared a personal experience as a tenant whose landlord failed to renew the tenancy agreement, questioning who benefits in such situations.
Farnaz Fazaipour criticized the reforms, arguing they will demonize landlords and lead to more landlords selling their properties, thereby increasing rental prices.
Farnaz Fazaipour emphasized the need for the Labour Party to prioritize passing the Leasehold Reform Act, as it has been pending for years and is causing a standstill in the market for those with short leases.
Finally, David Mckee concluded that the reforms will negatively impact small-term buy-to-let investors, pushing the market towards large-scale landlords, which could shrink the supply of rentals in prime residential areas.
The overall sentiment was that the Labour Party's property reforms, while well-intentioned, could have unintended consequences for the rental market and landlords if not carefully implemented.
