In this month's episode of NRLA podcast Listen Up Landlords presenters NRLA CEO Ben Beadleand Richard Blanco examine new research showing smaller landlords in the PRS contribute £45billion to the UK economy, and support almost 400,000 jobs.

The report, by PwC, was commissioned by the NRLA in partnership with Paragon Bank and Ben and Richard are joined by Paragon’s Mortgages Managing Director, Richard Rowntree to discuss the findings, along with landlord Suzanne Smith of the Independent Landlord blog.

Catherine Behdad, of the NRLA’s landlord support team, discusses the calls the association has been receiving on rental reform, and the team is also joined by Andrew Parkin of the Property Energy Professionals Association (PEPA) who talks about upcoming changes to the way EPCs are calculated.

He outlines what the changes will look like, and what they will mean for landlords.
