The Renters' Rights Act has been live for five months. The changes it's caused aren't the ones anyone was arguing about beforehand... Rob & Rob get into the bidding ban that backfired, the financially secure tenants now struggling to rent at all, and the new fees letting agents are testing on landlords. Then they work out what £100,000 in savings is really earning once tax and inflation have taken their share, and what the same money does over five years in property. (02:05) Inverse bidding wars, and why landlords are advertising rents above what they expect to get (06:54) Is the ban on rent in advance shutting out the tenants who can most afford it? (08:25) The fee one agent quoted Rob B for a £25 a month increase (13:06) Why a 5% savings rate is a trap, and who is walking into it (15:26) What £100,000 in the bank really pays you after tax and inflation (17:18) The same money in property, and the gap after five years of modest growth (21:16) Hub Extra - which side of AI your income lands.
