Having been a landlord for 25 years and after 7 years with Landlordreferencing.co.uk and now the total referencing arm that is Tenant Referencing UK.com I have seen many changes to the PRS.

One of the biggest changes have come from the constant barrage of legislation against landlords and letting agents designed by politicians who don’t have a clue.

How much legislation has been put in place to protect landlords from tenants that don’t pay our rent and destroy our investments? NONE!

The one thing I have seen is that they want us all to get better and why not?

However I myself became a victim of this political spin by trying to make the website politically correct with nice pictures of nice tenants in nice neighbourhoods to show landlords are human and not all rogue thieves.

The problem is that over the last 7 years of this barrage of legislation on us not one law has come out to protect landlords against rogue tenants who steal our rents and destroy our properties.

This government has done nothing to protect us from people in our society that wilfully harm us, our businesses and our families by deception, lies and criminal activity.  The truth is we are supposed to be the model student while the teacher allows the bully at the back to throw things at our head and will not even remove him from the class.

I light of the above I have decided that we should return to our roots and take of the softy pictures from the front page and bring back the images that show exactly what we do; stop you taking bad tenants and illegal immigrants.  

We must all unite in working together here so that we never take one another’s problems even if we have never even been near a court room and got a judgement against them.
