NRLA joins forces with Lettings Industry Council
The NRLA is uniting with the Lettings Industry Council (TLIC) to help amplify private sector voices.
From this month we will assume responsibility for TLIC, overseeing its secretariat, with TLIC Chair Theresa Wallace working alongside our chief executive Ben Beadle to ensure the forum continues to provide high-quality support to the lettings market to foster greater levels of professionalisation right across the board.
TLIC was established by Theresa and property expert Kate Faulkner, and is made up of lettings expert from throughout the industry, including large and small letting agents, service providers and professional bodies – all keen to raise standards and feed back on legislative changes impacing the lettings industry.
As the Renters’ Rights Act continues to impact the PRS, we, together with TLIC, will speak to policymakers with a united and influential voice, conveying the concerns of agents and landlords to government. Ben Beadle, said: “The NRLA and TLIC are long-standing supporters of greater professionalisation across the PRS, so uniting to champion the fantastic work responsible landlords and letting agents do for our sector is a no-brainer. Together, we will continue to support the highly impactful work undertaken to date and fight for a better, fairer, more prosperous PRS which works in the interests of all.”

Theresa Wallace said: “I have worked closely with Ben and the NRLA team for many years, and they share many of TLIC’s views when it comes to the need to build a lettings market which works for both landlords and agents.
“TLIC’s cross-industry, consensus-based approach has gone a long way towards ensuring the lettings market is able to play a pivotal role in the delivery of rented accommodation and with the NRLA’s help, we will take our work to the next level by providing even greater support for our members.”
