#ExpertView: Ten topics to help you become a better landlord (or letting agent)

In this week’s #ExpertView blog, Tessa Shepperson, founder of Landlord Law, provides ten tips for successful tenancies.

I have been writing for the TDS blog for some time now and they tell me the posts from last year about good practice for landlords are very popular.

I have therefore combined and updated the series into a small ebook to allow you to see them all in one place.

You can download the ebook for free from here.

The Landlord Law Conference

My company Landlord Law Services also runs the annual Landlord Law Conference which is sponsored by TDS (and has been since the very first conference in 2013).

I am offering a discount to TDS blog readers and you will find the coupon code to allow you to claim it in the ebook.

The conference takes place on 18 May 2018 and offers 10 half-hour talks all from legal experts.  It’s an excellent way to get up-to-date with the law in just one day!

Download the ebook (with your discount offer) here.

Further information on this and other topics can be found on my Landlord Law Blog at www.landlordlawblog.co.uk .
