In this week’s podcast, we look at the Residential Property Developer Tax. Essential reading for any RICS APC or AssocRICS candidates involved in property development, particularly on the Planning & Development and Land & Resources pathways.

In this week's podcast, we take a look at the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill that was introduced into Parliament on Wednesday 11th May 2022. The Bill is now slowly progressing through the different stages of parliament. Once the Bill is enacted, the changes that are set out in legislation will be accompanied by updates to regulations and policy.   

The content of the bill has the potential to have significant effects in the sphere of planning and development matters and therefore this hot topic should be familiar to RICS practitioners and candidates.

In this week’s podcast, we take a look at the Government’s recent White Paper, a Fairer Private Rented Sector.

This is essential reading for any RICS APC or AssocRICS candidates involved in the residential private rented sector (PRS) or pursuing the Leasing/Letting, Landlord & Tenant or Property Management competencies, amongst others.

I would like to thank Property Elite for the abundance of APC resources they have provided throughout my APC journey. The newsletters, podcasts and resources have been amazing and undoubtedly helped me get through my APC qualification. I would also like to thank them for inviting me on to their platform allowing me to share my thoughts.

I recently wrote an article about vacant commercial spaces which I have summarised below. This is a follow up article where I focus on the implications of vacancy on the APC competencies.

In this week’s blog, we look at the RICS Insight Paper Network Rail Policy for Letting Waste Sites: Sharing Knowledge to Support Professionals (March 2022).

The paper was authored by Mark McKay MRICS, Senior Development Surveyor at Network Rail and Consultant to Property Elite. The paper relates to all waste management property, except for landfill sites.

Mark commented that:

As part of the RICS championing sustainable practices across the built environment, I have devised a set of ‘best practice’ guidelines based on Network Rail’s experiences of letting and managing waste or similar type sites. The guidelines provide a two-fold approach to recent case law that places additional onus on landlords and landowners to monitor tenants’ activities on site in accordance with the terms of the lease and is a risk management tool to minimise any additional liabilities a landlord or landowner may face should a tenant face operational difficulties. It ensures that land and any contamination are managed appropriately and the guidelines have the full support from the Chartered Institution of Wastes Management (CIWM) and Environment Agency (EA).
