"We’re really pleased to launch what we believe is the industry’s first course on the Renters (Reform) Bill - something which is on track to shake up the lettings market when it finally becomes law"
The new course consists of ten modules and can be completed across 60 minutes, either all at once or across multiple sittings. The content has been designed by the lettings specialists at Goodlord and includes insights from Goodlord’s Oli Sherlock, legal expert Ryan Heaven, and Head of the Property Redress Scheme, Sean Hooker.
Modules include: guidance on how to navigate the abolition of Section 21 and implement the new Section 8 rules; the role and powers of the Property Ombudsman; and what to expect from the new property portal.
The course will also touch on lessons learned from the roll-out of similar legislation in Scotland and Wales, as well as advice on what changes agents should be implementing now, before the bill is passed into law.
The course comes with additional resources which can be shared with colleagues and landlords, as well as a CPD certificate for the individuals who successfully pass the course.
Goodlord’s Director of Growth, Costas Frangeskou, comments: “We’re really pleased to launch what we believe is the industry’s first course on the Renters (Reform) Bill - something which is on track to shake up the lettings market when it finally becomes law.
"Being across the details will mean agents can offer further value to their landlords and help them navigate these changes, as well as understand how these reforms will affect their own businesses and ensure they plan accordingly.”
