Member perspectives

Landlords who stopped worrying.

A. PatelPrivate landlord, 2 properties · TLA member since 2021

Joining was a no-brainer — I was spending far too much time clicking through different pages on different websites every time something changed. It's all there, and the guidance is genuinely useful. It already helped me get a clear reply to a tenancy problem — I was taken seriously even on the more obvious points, and never made to feel stupid for not already knowing everything.

S. NewmanPortfolio landlord, 9 properties · TLA member since 2017

I've been a landlord for nearly 20 years, and the only real problem now is the sheer complexity of things compared to just a couple of decades back. I mostly use membership as a resource to stay up to date with changes, and I always compare any written communication to my tenants against the documentation in membership. It's definitely already prevented a few significant issues.

DH
D. HarrisPrivate landlord, 1 property · TLA member since 2023

I had a tenant fall behind on rent and had no idea what steps I should be taking. I contacted the Association and they talked me through a clear plan and explained exactly what records I needed to keep. It was simple and practical to put into practice, and made me feel a lot more confident approaching the situation.

M. EvansPortfolio landlord, 6 properties · TLA member since 2019

Using the document library is really what's justified the value of membership for me. I know some documents you find through a search engine can easily be out of date, whereas the ones here are reliably correct at the time I use them.

R. ThompsonLandlord, 2 properties · TLA member since 2022

I wanted a community that felt supportive and understood my position, just before taking on an extra property. I ended up using the tenancy documents, landlord requirements and the support advice service within the first few weeks. It feels safe knowing there's somewhere to ask questions without worrying about being judged for not knowing everything.

J. ClarkeProfessional landlord, 12 properties · TLA member since 2016

One of my favourite things is that I'm not expected to sift through pages of legislation just to work out the sensible step — the information's there and I can act on it directly. Both times I've asked the Association for support, the answer was to the point and gave me a useful conclusion. Direct and professional.

Businesses building on the network.

L. MorganLetting agent, 145 managed properties · TLA member since 2020

We're a letting agency representing a number of landlords, so the membership is largely additional support for compliance requirements. It saves us a lot of time compared with piecing information together from various places rather than getting one confirmed answer.

PS
P. ShahAgency director, 280 managed properties · TLA member since 2018

We started our membership mostly for the document library, but realised the support service was the aspect we actually needed to grow and expand what we offer landlords. We had a tricky tenancy issue and received good information that proved beneficial, giving us direct steps to take.

HF
H. FosterIndependent agent, 72 managed properties · TLA member since 2024

Being a small letting agency, we don't have a large compliance department behind us, so having an easy-to-access professional resource matters. We've found it very useful for checking things before advising a client — especially during landlord requirement changes.

CB
C. BennettProperty manager, 96 managed properties · TLA member since 2019

We use the membership site every day at our office, either to retrieve a document or cross-reference the policies set by individual landlords. It's improved consistency across the team — staff were previously finding different, conflicting versions of the same documents online.

AK
A. KhanLettings manager, 210 managed properties · TLA member since 2021

We manage a mixed portfolio, so there's always something to check — the information is easy to find, and having support has been useful when we need confirmation or a second opinion. It's basically become a routine part of how we get things right day to day.

TW
T. WilsonProperty management business, 55 properties · TLA member since 2017

I've been looking for better administration and landlord support for a few years now, given how complex things have got. Membership has surprised me because it directly addresses what people actually managing property deal with — it's been genuinely useful in terms of practicality and support.

Member perspectives

Tenants who know where they stand.

EB
E. BrooksPrivate tenant · TLA member since 2023

I contacted The Landlord Association mainly because I was worried I wouldn't get my deposit back and didn't know what procedures I needed to follow. Their advice was clear about how to arrange the evidence, so I felt genuinely encouraged that I could actually do what was being suggested.

MA
M. AliPrivate tenant · TLA member since 2020

I'd been emailing and talking to my landlord about essential repairs for weeks and simply didn't know how to make sure things were properly in writing. The information from TLA helped me work out what was required and put things into perspective more than anything else.

JR
J. ReedTenant, renting with family · TLA member since 2022

I'd received an eviction notice and was worried, not knowing when I was meant to be leaving or what notice I should have received beforehand. I really didn't want to think about what I'd have to do if my landlord went ahead — luckily I found TLA, which helped prevent a lot of unnecessary stress.

KD
K. DaviesFirst-time renter · TLA member since 2024

When searching for more information about my tenancy contract, I saw TLA had a specific tenant section. Most sites' wording seemed to assume you already understood every part of the contract — it was nice to have things explained simply for once.

NP
N. PatelPrivate tenant · TLA member since 2019

I struggled trying to provide evidence for deductions from my deposit — I had it all stored but had never organised it properly. Their explanation of how to put the evidence together made a real difference; disputes like this can get complicated, so having it broken down clearly meant a lot.

CM
C. MooreLong-term private tenant · TLA member since 2021

I wrote in because I was unsure whether my landlord was allowed to enter my house without permission and wanted a second opinion — it had me feeling a bit nervous at the time, so their calm, informative explanation was a lifesaver.
