Episode 10: All the latest on student lets

With more than 10% of landlords letting to students, in this month’s episode of Listen Up Landlords, we take a look at what’s going on in the land of student lets.

Presenters NRLA CEO Ben Beadle – a student landlord himself - and local representative Richard Blanco, are joined by Victoria Tolmie-Loverseed, assistant chief executive at national student housing charity Unipol and Simon Thompson of website accommodationforstudents.com to discuss the latest news in the sector.

Together they examine the latest trends in the market, levels of demand at universities across the country and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on landlords providing student homes. 

They are joined by experienced student landlord Terry Samuel and agent Sally Hatcher, who have both been in the business for more than 20 years and share their experiences, good and bad, of operating in the student market.
