  • Is being a landlord still worth it?

    Is being a landlord still worth it?
    Oct 1 2026
    Everyone has an opinion on whether being a landlord still pays off. Very few have the data to back it up... Richard Donnell, Zoopla's Executive Director - Research, is back on the show. Rob & Rob put the big question to him straight away, and his answer comes with a condition every landlord should hear. From there, he tests the headlines investors have been worrying about against the evidence. (02:12) Are landlords really heading for the exit, and who's buying the homes they sell? (04:00) Why so many investors now expect to buy a property that needs work (06:44) What the Renters' Rights Act has changed so far, and what it hasn't (08:33) Three quarters of landlords are over 60. So, who owns Britain's rental homes next? (11:43) Why housing will always feature in the wealth tax debate, and the signal that landlords still matter to the government (15:42) Is the average £10,000 EPC upgrade worth it, or is it time to sell? (18:21) The long-run link that still sets property apart from anything else Richard could invest in Links mentioned: Zoopla's rental estimate tool Enjoy the show?

    ASK543: My non-paying tenant just became my colleague! PLUS: Should I buy this with cash?
    Sep 29 2026
    Should you buy with cash or take out a mortgage when you're starting out? And what happens when the tenant you're evicting gets a job at your company? Rob & Rob answer two tricky listener questions on this week's show. (00:48) Alice has £600,000 saved and wants to get into property, but she's torn between flipping doer-uppers with cash and building a rental portfolio with a mortgage. Which way should she go? Rob B explains what needs to come first, before any strategy is on the table. (05:24) Mike's non-paying tenant is due to be evicted by bailiffs, but they’ve just been hired by the same company he works for. Should he reveal he's the landlord, or keep quiet? Rob D weighs up the risks to the eviction, and how the new job could work in his favour. Enjoy the show? Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts - it really helps others find us!

  • The unintended consequence of the Renters’ Rights Act that NOBODY is reporting

    The unintended consequence of the Renters’ Rights Act that NOBODY is reporting
    Sep 24 2026
    The Renters' Rights Act has been live for five months. The changes it's caused aren't the ones anyone was arguing about beforehand... Rob & Rob get into the bidding ban that backfired, the financially secure tenants now struggling to rent at all, and the new fees letting agents are testing on landlords. Then they work out what £100,000 in savings is really earning once tax and inflation have taken their share, and what the same money does over five years in property. (02:05) Inverse bidding wars, and why landlords are advertising rents above what they expect to get (06:54) Is the ban on rent in advance shutting out the tenants who can most afford it? (08:25) The fee one agent quoted Rob B for a £25 a month increase (13:06) Why a 5% savings rate is a trap, and who is walking into it (15:26) What £100,000 in the bank really pays you after tax and inflation (17:18) The same money in property, and the gap after five years of modest growth (21:16) Hub Extra - which side of AI your income lands.
