Everyone's talking about the Renters' Rights Act, but most of what's being taught is dangerously wrong. In this episode, compliance expert Julie exposes a "free training" webinar riddled with legal errors, rebranded slides stolen from the NRLA, and a shocking truth: the landlords doing everything wrong are the ones who'll go undetected — while good landlords get caught in the enforcement net.

We break down where to actually find trustworthy information, why there's no "driving licence" for landlords despite the massive legal risk, a real (and disturbing) portfolio walkthrough involving mould, missing lightbulbs, and a leaking roof, and why 170+ overlapping acts — some dating back to 1737 — are making an already confusing system nearly impossible to follow correctly.

If you're a landlord, letting agent, or tenant trying to make sense of the new legislation, this conversation will change how you think about "legitimate sources" for good.
