Your NRLA podcast: Local authority enforcement and property fraud

In this episode of NRLA podcast Listen Up Landlords, presenters Ben Beadle and Richard Blanco examine the issue of local authority enforcement following the publication of a new report by the NRLA.

Ben and Richard are joined by James Wood, head of policy for the NRLA and Julia Morris, assistant director of regulatory services from Waltham Forest Council to discuss the findings, which uncovered huge disparities between the work carried out in different local authority areas.

Julia discusses Waltham Forest’s approach, and the challenges faced by local authorities when it comes to enforcing standards. You can read the full report here.

Later in the show we are joined by John Daw, chief executive of NRLA partner Title Guardian, who talks about the shadowy world of property fraud, common tactics and how you can protect yourself and your portfolio.
